OLD PERTH # 12

Some of the pubs and hotels that used to dot Perth, some are still here in a renewed form but most are gone forever (I think I have all locations correct?!) oh and I think you'll soon get a bit sad like I am that these were all demolished once you click the links and see what replaced them.....
The Adelphi Hotel, cnr Mill and St Georges Tce.Demolished to build this.

The Palace Hotel, St Georges Tce. Only the facade remains with the hideous Bankwest tower climbing out of its back rooms. I'm not a big fan of facadism, but I guess they at least left something

ELROD HOUSE

Just adding to my list of places I want to see/visit before I die
The Elrod House is in Palm Springs, California. It was designed by the American architect John Lautner and constructed in 1968. The house was built for Arthur Elrod, an interior designer. I believe most of these photos are by Leland Y. Lee.
I could sit here for an eternity
Fun facts: The house was used as Willard Whyte's mansion in the 1971 James Bond film Diamonds Are Forever. The living room, swimming pool, and an interior room were featured in the film. The home has also been the site of photo shoots for Playboy Magazine.
