For all your motor scooter needs, Newtown

I love those little Moorish-like domes on top of the building. And the art deco style casement windows.

  1. Hmm! I thought it was Spanish architecture. Nonetheless, it is beautiful.

    Would love to get a scooter (Vespa) one day.

  5. Yes, such an interesting building. I wonder how old it is. So many fine looking buildings end up as shops - at least on the ground level - well it's better than knocking them down.
