Such a travesty that this gorgeous building was knocked down to build the MLC Centre... What were they thinking?

I've heard so many reminiscences of the Australia Hotel, so it's finally great to see it.

I know ... its so awful the things that were knocked down in Sydney in the name of progress ... the Metropole Hotel, the original Wentworth and countless other buildings big & small ... but that's the way of things I suppose!

@ 56m to dome, in 1891, it was Australias tallest building! even taller then the 12storey APA Building in melbourne! it had 3storeys added in 1921 to keep up with demand and by late 1960's . it looked tired and outdated. all it needed was a refurb and removal of 3 storeys from 1921 and would have made a suberb boutique unit block. but alas, harry seidler didnt have it in his plans for MLC centre and it bit the dust in 1971. sad loss indeed.
