Maitland Architecture

Following on from yesterday's shot I thought I would post photos of buildings for the next few days.

I do love the old buildings in Maitland and this is one of my favourite.

I think architecture always works well in black and white.
Beautiful shot and architecture, love the balconies. Although I am not a fan of b/w, it really works very well here.

Well, of course I DO love black and white plus I love architecture images. Really nice!

Nice. Another beautiful style of building. Love that veranda and balcony!
July 10th, 2020  
An iconic style with their plain architecture and delightful balconies - so well defined in black and white !
July 10th, 2020  
Super architecture. I really like the balcony railings. The black and white conversion fits perfectly
July 10th, 2020  
This is a very nice building, looking forward to seeing more
July 10th, 2020  
Beautiful balconies
July 10th, 2020  
that's a classic. I like the way the black and white treatment means the sky is almost part of the building.

Fabulously ornate balconies. They don’t make ‘em this this any more...
July 10th, 2020  
Lovely architecture and wrought iron work, suits b&w tones perfectly Babs:)

I love those balconies, looks great in b&w
July 10th, 2020  
Just loving the ironwork on that balcony
July 10th, 2020  
It's a beauty - where in Maitland is it?
July 10th, 2020  
Beautiful. I prefer by far these 'old' buildings than those of today which are look li play blocks.
July 10th, 2020  
Great picture! Love the balconies.
July 10th, 2020  
So many artistic touches to the architecture of this building

Superbly detailed iron work and it does look great in b&w. Out of curiosity, what colour is it?

@onewing I need to take a walk around there....in Maitland itself I went to the train station....haven't had a good wander around any where else yet
July 10th, 2020  
@annied check out the link. There are lots of other interesting buildings too. I love wandering round Maitland and go there often.

I love wandering around Maitland photographing the old buildings. I think this one was built in 1856 and has a few facelifts since then.

@lesip Not it isn't abandoned. I think it was originally a hotel and now I believe it is apartments.

@pattyblue It is a creamy colour. I think some of the stonework may be Hawkesbury sandstone
