“We’re getting a lot more people commenting about<br />

how the pub looks and it definitely stands out more,<br />

which is what we wanted from the renovations.”<br />

HERITAGE CONCERNS<br />

Some historians voiced concerns about the effect the<br />

upgrade would have on the hotel’s art deco appearance.<br />

However, the art deco look wasn’t added until the<br />

1930s and the pub has undergone several renovations<br />

since then.<br />

Council saw merit in the new development and<br />

ultimately decided that the Hurley Group had<br />

“satisfactorily demonstrated that the proposal will not<br />

detract from the heritage value of the building”.<br />

Now, not only does the completed project retain the art<br />

deco facade, the styling on the new balcony introduces<br />

new art deco inspiration.<br />

“We wanted to keep the heritage of the pub because it’s<br />

something that we’re really proud of,” Scott said.<br />

“We tried really hard – and successfully I think – to still<br />

complement the original build of the hotel.<br />

“Everything we’ve done, we tried to keep that art<br />

deco feel inside and outside and I think we did that<br />

really well.”<br />
