No fans of retro architecture?
Very cool, is it abandoned?
Nope not abandoned. Just run down.
I love retro architecture! I was just out :) It's a neat building. It's too bad that it's been let go.
The architecture is too unique for it to be ignored for too long. I think there are plans in the works to do major restorations as shown in this video:

I love that building and a huge fan of anything Art Deco. That building is a classic 50's architectural style where there was a meld of modern and the centre design and build still hark back to some of the Art Deco style. I was out also, need to learn patience lol ...
