Carillon Towers. Built in 1964 by architect Donald Powers Smith in the "Miami moderne" style.
The prosperity of post-World War II America is reflected in the inventive designs of the Miami Modern style. The Miami Modern style evolved from Art Deco and Streamline Moderne designs, reflecting greater modern functional simplicity. Although the style was used on various types of buildings, it is typified by futuristic-looking hotel and motels. Characteristics include the use of geometric patterns, kidney and oval shapes, curves, stylized sculpture, cast concrete decorative panels and stonework depicting marine and nautical themes, particularly at the entrances. Overhanging roof plates and projecting floor slabs with paired or clustered supporting pipe columns, as well as open-air verandas and symmetrical staircases are also typical design features.

Le Sea Cloud II est un trois-mâts barque moderne, à coque acier, construit en 2001 dans les chantiers navals de l’Astilleros Gondán à Castropol (Asturias), Puerto de Figueras, en Espagne.
Ce luxueux voilier de croisière est la propriété de la branche maritime de la holding Hansa Treuhand et géré par la Sea Cloud Cruises GmbH. Il a pris le nom de Sea Cloud II en raison de sa sœur d'armement le Sea Cloud, un quatre-mâts barque lancé en 1935.
Le projet de construire un deuxième voilier de luxe date de 1994. Il devait rester dans l'esprit du Sea Cloud et offrir aux passagers la tradition de la grande marine à voile, mais avec le luxe et le confort des temps modernes.
La grande difficulté fut de trouver un chantier naval capable d'accomplir ce défi. Un premier chantier finlandais fut trouvé, mais sa faillite subite mena ce projet en Espagne, dans les chantiers de Figueras. Il fut terminé avec un an de retard.
Il fit sa croisière inaugurale en février 2001 le long des côtes espagnoles.
Il dispose de 47 cabines pour une capacité de 96 passagers.
Il s'agit d'un trois-mâts de 135,7 m de long , 28 voiles pour 4 166 m2, et 69 cabines pour 136 passagers.
The Sea Cloud II is a large barque built as a cruise ship, and operated by Sea Cloud Cruises GmbH of Hamburg, Germany. A luxury vessel, she sails under the Maltese flag. The Roman suffix II indicates that she is the company's second ship. She is neither a sister to, nor the successor of, the Sea Cloud (ex Hussar II), but a separate vessel.
Due to the success of the operator's first ship, Sea Cloud, but also for economic reasons, the operator decided to put another sailing ship into service.
Unlike the Sea Cloud, the Sea Cloud II is a newbuilding. The contract for her construction was awarded to the Asturian shipbuilder Astilleros Gondán, SA. The keel laying was held there on 24 June 1998.
The rigging was planned and produced by Navicom in Wolgast. The 23 sails were made in Poland.
Sea Cloud II was launched on 18 March 1999. However, the owner's exacting demands in relation to interior fitout caused delivery problems and personnel problems. This led to a roughly one-year delay. The ship was eventually handed over to Sea Cloud Cruises on 29 December 2000, in a not yet completely finished state.
On 22 January 2001, the final work was completed. The Sea Cloud II was christened on 6 February 2001 in Las Palmas, Canary Islands. The sponsor was Sabine Christiansen.
Hull[edit]
The Sea Cloud II has an overall length of 105.90 m (347 ft 5 in). Her maximum beam is 16.0 m (52 ft 6 in) and her draught is described as 5.70 m (18 ft 8 in). Her hull is built of standard shipbuilding steel, and is fitted with eight watertight bulkheads.
Three of the Sea Cloud II's decks are continuous. She has a 3,849 gross tonnage (GT), and is equipped with three anchors, weighing a total of 2,280 kg (5,030 lb).
Decks[edit]
The ship has five decks. The bridge deck is used as a sun deck behind the superstructure. Below it is the main deck, which is called the lido deck. It has a bar, lounge, the Owner Suites and the library.
The promenade deck, or first sub-deck, houses the reception area, restaurant, boutique, and the junior suites. Outside the windows of the suites is a promenade; no balconies are available. Externally, the Sea Cloud II is recognizable by the long "cutouts" in her hull.
The cabin deck is the second sub-deck. As its name suggests, it houses the cabins, but also a fitness room, sauna and a room for medical care. On the lowest deck are cabins for the crew members, along with the kitchen and other service facilities. A freight elevator connects the decks.
There is no pool aboard the Sea Cloud II. Instead, she has a foldable platform, which facilitates sea-based watersports.
Cabins and suites[edit]
In the cabins and suites, a maximum of 96 passengers can be accommodated. The interior of the Sea Cloud II is air conditioned, and in the cabins and suites, the temperature can be regulated.
There are 27 outside cabins with portholes. By price category, the room sizes range from 12 m2 (130 sq ft) to 20 m2 (220 sq ft). They are always equipped with two beds, and a TV, safe, shower, toilet and marble vanity tops with gold-plated taps, amongst other features. In the three interior cabins, the lowest category, there are bunk beds.
The 16 "junior suites" are 23 m2 (250 sq ft) in size, and are equipped with large windows. They also have more luxurious furnishings and interior decorations. The bathrooms are slightly larger than in the cabins and have a bath. The two so-called "owner suites" differ from the "junior suites" by having a room size of 27 m2 (290 sq ft), more extensive furnishings (including a four-poster bed) and a much larger bathroom with tub and separate shower.

Rigging[edit]
The Sea Cloud II is a square-rigger with fore-mast, main-mast and mizzen-mast. The top of her main-mast is 57 m (187 ft) above deck. Her 23 sails have a total area of approximately 3,000 m2 (32,000 sq ft). She is sailed traditionally by hand, as is common, for example, on sail training ships.
Machinery[edit]
The vessel's main power plants consist of two four-stroke diesel engines made by Krupp MaK Maschinenbau GmbH, each developing 1,240 kW (1,660 hp) at 900 revolutions/minute. The propeller is driven via a gear mechanism. Using this means of propulsion, the Sea Cloud II achieves a top speed of about 13 knots. Additionally, she is equipped with a bow thruster.
Three main generators developing a total of 1,653 kW (2,217 hp) generate the on-board voltage of 380/220 V AC, 50 Hz. There is also a 187 kW (251 hp) emergency generator.
Purely by good fortune, I bookended my journey from Woking to Portsmouth with photos of Southern Railway 1930s-style signal boxes. I had not previously noticed the disused one outside Portsmouth Harbour station, but it survives as another example of Southern Railway moderne.

If I were to open a business in Shelbyville, Illinois, I'm pretty sure I'd want it to be in this building. The black vitrolite and glass block are particularly snazzy, and the Longbranch Grill is right next door.
UPDATE: The Vitrolite has been replaced with some kind of tacky pressed-aluminum surface. It's awful. The building on the right is looking a lot nicer these days, though.

Oscar’s Hotel and Café Bar is a beautiful Art Deco, boutique hotel in the heart of the Victorian provincial city of Ballarat. Located at 18 Doveton Street, it is the perfect base when sightseeing around the city, as it is so close to many beautiful and historical Ballarat buildings.
Oscar’s, when it was first built in the 1860s was originally the Criterion Hotel, a popular venue in the gold rush days. However, as the Gold Rush dwindled and was replaced with wealth generated through grazing and agriculture in the surrounding area, so the Criterion Hotel changed.
In the 1930s, it was completely refurbished inside. It is this interior with its Streamline Moderne liner style staircase, acid etched frosted glass windows and skyscraper style fireplaces that you see today after a recent restoration.
On a personal note as someone who has stayed there, Oscar’s offers a stylish and comforatable hotel experience at a reasonable price. It also has great food and excellent service.

You don't see many interior shots of these types of homes today. We are leaving the bathroom intact. We may replace the flooring with black marble though to upgrade it some.
Art Deco House on Halmer Gate, Spalding. The best example of Moderne, with some streamline features, in town in my humble opinion. Strikingly beautiful. There is a purer streamline moderne house in Neville Avenue, but in spite of the pitched roof I think this one is prettier. Has now been remodelled but still looks great: bigger garage now.
