the flagstaff hotel, who knew

...a lot of people probably but I didn't. I have started (gulp) watching Division 4. This is an establishing shot from the episode 'Night Out', first broadcast in (I think) April 1969. 


Witches in Britches hides in plain sight. It never occurred to me to wonder what the building was before it was whatever it is now, I guess if challenged I'd imagine it was some kind of warehouse, I don't know why. I've never been inside but I wonder if there's anything appealingly deco about the inside or whether the exterior, obviously now completely destroyed, was just a hack piece of modernisation.
