Matraville monolith

Situated in the Eastern Suburbs Memorial Park in Botany Cemetery, Sydney - the Art Deco Crematorium stands with great dignity.

 

I learned that the building was designed in 1937 by Louis Leighton Robertson and opened just a year later in 1938. Built by Lipscombe & Price.

 

I've wanted to see this beautiful and functional community Art Deco building for a long while.

 

This is a perspective seen through my eyes and this image is not for commercial purposes.
