It is, it’s amazing inside too especially the spiral staircase which you can see in the first picture – it’s a work of art in itself. But it’s a no-go area right now!
Nice capture it still looks quitee modern really, I like these types, I think one of the oldest buildings along from me is the old section of St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington
Hi Keith – it’s a fascinating building … I’ve loved some of the exhibitions I’ve been to, also to use the conference centre – let alone the views and its situation. Great to see – thank you … Hilary
It is. Maybe we can meet there for lunch one day Hilary! I’m a regular when it’s open, everything from the Royal Phil to rock, art exhibitions to beer festivals!
That is a beautiful building. It reminds me of Tinside Lido on Plymouth Hoe where I spent most of my school holidays. My friend and I would pay the 3d bus fare into town almost every day. It was also built in 1935 in the art deco style. https://allatseawithme.blogspot.com/2021/01/wordless-wednesday_20.html
Wonderful art deco building!

The lights at this building make it almost a “modern” of our time:) A great find! Jesh

They certainly do, and it has a modern outlook too when it’s open, especially in the two galleries which champion modern art. Cheers Jesh.
