Manchester Unity

Last day with parents in town, and had lunch with one of my cousins and her husband in Richmond.

After seeing my folks off, I wandered back through town. Pretty much any time but especially at sunset, you'll see people standing on the SE corner of Collins and Swanston, taking photos of this building. I figured I should do it myself today.

This is the Manchester Unity building, a skyscraper Gothic style building built in 1932 as offices, but is now apartments. It's 67m high, 13 floors and is modelled on the Chicago Tribune tower.
