#Kingsclere in #FitzroyStreetStKilda has a rather late Edwardian facade for its 1926 date, but has an interesting interior, being built around a courtyard, very rare in Melbourne. Though seems architect #PJOconnor didn’t think the it needed to be anything other than very plain #redbrick; it’s quite lushly planted now which is nice for the flats that look out onto it.









Unable to determine from these pictures but what I find with many of this era of apartments is that subsequent renovations almost without fail spoil the interiors with the removal of walls etc – have seen this happen many times. This is a really singular sort of apartment complex for that era isn’t it.
