HALF BAKED URBAN DESIGN

This is not the building you want to ever spend too much time in, being as it's Perth Police HQ and all, but it is still one of my favourite Perth buildings. So very 60's, I love its' curve. I read once that there was meant to be a second building (exactly the same) built on the western end of the existing one. There was to be a large roundabout out the front (they did do that) with Adelaide Tce splitting the two buildings, so you would drive between them to enter the city. Now that would have been an awesome city entrance. But like most great plans some bean counter probably ruined it and it never happened. It also has the best radio antennae of any building in Perth.

They really need to cut down those shit house pine trees from out front of it too
