Yes! Very beautiful and well preserved. Thank you for your support @joanstewart

Reminds me of departmental stores we had in the 1960s - 1970s three I remember Greaterman's, John-Orr's and Stuttafords in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Today I believe most of these are now split into apartment buildings for living in, also currently a dangerous part of the city.

From a prestigious shopping area into squalor, like many cities in our country.

Wow, nice memories, but contrasting actuality. I think that's what gives even more value to those objects that survive those times. Thank you for your nice words and appreciation @joanstewart

Very little survived here sadly, yes plenty of memories to cherish from places like you still enjoy today.
