The Strathmore CITY ICON LAUNCHES INTO STRATOSPHERE WORDS: TIM BOYLEN PHOTOS: SERPENTINE STUDIO 10 | Hotel SA | W W W . A H A S A . A S N . A U
In the midst of the COVID-19 lockdown, The Strathmore Hotel has emerged as a stunning success story, blending the original heritage of colonial Adelaide with contemporary pub design. At a deeper level, it has become a beacon of hope during a time of unprecedented adversity – and a poignant reminder to the community and political leaders that pubs are family affairs, with personal livelihoods on the line. Nothing has been left untouched during The Strathmore’s multiyear, multi-million-dollar renovation. One of the first features you see upon entering is the soaring western wall; a design statement that oozes history. This is no ordinary wall. The Strathmore is one of Adelaide’s oldest pubs and the bricks were probably laid by SA’s first settlers. (The Strathmore is located about a kilometre from the spot where these entrepreneurial souls first pitched their tents on the banks of the River Torrens.) The wall runs two-storeys high, rising 7.5 metres through a recently opened void in the first floor. Coca-Cola Amatil congratulates David Basheer on the reopening of the Strathmore Hotel W W W .
