Glenelg Town Hall
Originally known as the Glenelg Institute Building, Glenelg Town Hall was designed by Edmund Wright, architect and former Mayor of Adelaide. The foundation stone was laid on 11 December 1875 by Sir Henry Ayers and the Institute formally opened in 1877. The building had a grand main entrance on the western frontage and a tower to take in the panoramic view of the ocean and surrounds. A cupola was later added to house the clock donated by Mayor Thomas King in 1884. In 1887 the building became the Glenelg Town Hall

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic Glenelg Town Hall, originally known as the Glenelg Institute Building. Designed by renowned architect and former Mayor of Adelaide, Edmund Wright, this architectural gem was a symbol of pride for the local community. The foundation stone was laid on 11 December 1875 by Sir Henry Ayers, and two years later in 1877, the Institute formally opened its doors. With its grand main entrance facing westward and a tower offering panoramic views of the ocean and surrounding areas, this building exudes elegance and charm. A cupola was later added to house a clock donated by Mayor Thomas King in 1884, further enhancing its allure. In 1887, this remarkable structure transformed into what we now know as the Glenelg Town Hall. Standing tall against a picturesque backdrop featuring clear blue skies dotted with fluffy clouds and towering palm trees lining the street below, it is an iconic sight that represents both history and progress. Through Dale Allman Photography's lens, this image encapsulates not only the architectural beauty but also captures a sense of timelessness. It invites viewers to appreciate both past traditions and present aspirations while showcasing Australia's rich heritage. This print serves as a reminder of our connection to history through architecture while inspiring us to explore new travel destinations that hold stories waiting to be discovered.
