Coronet Flats
Coronet Flats (also known as Coronet Court) is a residential apartment building on the corner of Brunswick Street and Elystan Road, New Farm, Queensland, Australia. With its prominent siting, unusual form, and striking art deco style, Coronet Flats is considered one of the most beautiful and recognisable private buildings of the 1930s in Brisbane.
==History==
Coronet Flats was completed in November 1933 and was described at the time as having "the architectural dignity of a mansion".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Coronet Flats )〕 Max Strickland, Melbourne businessman and building developer, determined that Brisbane was lacking "up-to-date, well serviced" flats and contracted to have Coronet Flats built. Initially, Strickland planned an extension to be constructed adjacent (probably at 999 Brunswick Street) that would double the size of the building if the development proved successful. The two buildings would have formed a courtyard between them for a swimming pool, extra garages, and laundries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Coronet Flats )〕 This is probably where the alternative name "Coronet Court" is derived. This was never realised with Strickland constructing a detached house on the site at a later date. The building was very popular at the time (with four of the nine flats let prior to completion) and remains so today. Strickland sold the building in 1939; since then it has stayed within the O'Connor family.
