		Preservation of our Deco Heritage Many buildings from the Art Deco era are now threatened by inappropriate redevelopment of demolition. ADMS is not "anti-development" and is in favour of recycling buildings. ADMS is active in the listing of Art Deco buildings with the National Trust, Heritage Victoria and the Tasmanian Heritage Council, and with the establishment or extension of local government Heritage Overlays. These listings provide a measure of protection. However, ADMS receives many calls for assistance in defence of threatened buildings and often must present submissions to various planning or approval authorities or tribunals. Following is a list of buildings for which ADMS has provided preservation guidance or been requested to commence preservation activity since 2000. 420 Spencer Street, Melbourne ANZ Building (former Royal Banking Chambers), Melbourne Army Band Building, Albert Park, Melbourne Army Recruiting Building, Melbourne Bethesda Hospital, Richmond, Melbourne Burnham Beeches, Sherbrooke, Victoria Capitol Bakeries Building, Toorak, Melbourne Century Building, Melbourne Chelsea Cinema, Kensington, Adelaide Coles Store #1, Collingwood, Melbourne Collingwood TAFE (former Collingwood Technical College), Melbourne David Jones, Melbourne (former) Davis Relova Laundry, Richmond, Melbourne Enniskillen, Canterbury, Melbourne Freemasons Hospital, East Melbourne Garden Avenue, East Melbourne Glenelg Ozone Cinema, Glenelg, Adelaide Grand Hotel, Essendon, Melbourne High Court Building, Melbourne The Centre, Ivanhoe, Melbourne Kyogle, Northern NSW Lonsdale House, Melbourne Maritime Services Building (Museum of Contemporary Art), Sydney Maryborough Olympic Pool, Victoria McPhersons Building, Melbourne Middle Brighton Baths, Melbourne Mildura Base Hospital, Victoria Mitcham Railway Precinct, Melbourne Mitchell House, Melbourne Myer Melbourne Main Hall, Northcote Town Hall, Melbourne Parliament Square, Hobart The Pavilion, Princes Park, Carlton, Melbourne Penfold's Building, Fitzroy, Melbourne Portside, Burnie, Tasmania Rivoli Theatre, Camberwell, Melbourne (former) Russell Street Police Headquarters Complex, Melbourne Smith Street Redevelopment, Collingwood, Melbourne St Vincent Place North, Albert Park, Melbourne Taroona Hotel, Hobart Theatre Royal, Castlemaine, Victoria Union Hall, Adelaide University (former) Victoria Car Park, Melbourne Warracknabeal Town Hall, Warracknabeal, Victoria Wimmera Livestock Bazaar, Horsham, Victoria Yule House, Melbourne Note: Images courtesy of ADMS Committee members and members Ninth World Congress on Art Deco Home \| What is Art Deco? \| About ADMS \| Preservation \| What's On Publications \| Membership \| Gift Membership \| Contact \| Links \| Important Info
