Tunbridge Manor
East Melbourne, Albert Street 097 - Tunbridge Manor
Colour photo shows a three storey block of interwar flats. The facade is symmetrical. The two top, outer windows are of unusual shape, the sides being angled inwards from about half way up. The central entry with window above leads the eye upward to a stepped parapet, giving a sense of verticality to an otherwise horizontal scheme.
