Deco Decay
I was taking a shortcut when I passed this low rise apartment building and noticed the birds above the door so pulled over immediately. It is hard to believe that a building with such wonderful Art Deco details would be allowed to fall into such a state of disrepair. There are occupied apartments so I think there must be another door they use rather than this one. I hope someone restores this place soon! And this is in a desirable part of town.
Wonderful birds, yes Pat. Watch this space. Surely something will occur
ReplyDeleteWonderful details!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
What a shame. This appears to be one of those buildings about which people say "It has good bones, but need a lot of TLC." Well-spotted, and well photographed, Pat! You always find such interesting subjects!
ReplyDeleteHello, I love the birds. I hope the building is renovated. It is pretty.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday, enjoy your day and the new week ahead!
Call the newspaper or TV station and have them do a story on it. Drum up some interest in fixing it up.
ReplyDeleteOh I really hope so too Pat! Looooove all the little details that should be treasured ✨
ReplyDeleteOh my, I couldn't agree more. What a shame to let such a pretty building looks so down at heel. I hope the other entrance has a more welcoming appeal.
ReplyDeleteIt looks worth restoring.
ReplyDeleteYes, this building is definitely worth an upgrade. I love the details of the birds above the door.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to understand why something like this happened.
ReplyDeleteOh definitely way too great a building to be 'let go' like this. I hope somebody restores it to its original glory. I just love the swallows on the door plate.
ReplyDeleteWHoa! Love this! Looks like something from a movie where the people have disappeared.
