Surprise Entrant In WA Housing Industry Awards?
April 23, 2008
Thanks to Betty for this fine example of retro chic home design on Pearson Street, just up from the food-bowl of the western suburbs, otherwise known as Herdie Growers Market. We particularly liked the attention to detail the builder has shown in finishing this fine executive residence, like the mouldering carpet on the verandah and the smashed windows. The only thing missing was a couple of car seats under the awning.

Places of (Dis)Interest
April 2, 2008
I saw this brass plaque on a building in Exhibition Street, Melbourne and thought that Perth could really do with a few of these sprinkled around town. Perhaps Lord Mayor Lisa Scaffidi could sell the hot dog cart to raise funds for about 200,000 of them. That should cover most of the buildings in Perth.
