This is the building that is visible on the right in the vintage photograph above.

Surprisingly, the building has a 'Neptune' motif.

Trident on left, and Neptune himself on the right.
More Neptunes, and a rather odd engaged column topped with a 'headdress'.

architectural panels bookend the balconies.

Does anyone know the history of this building?
(I'm pretty sure we haven't seen this building on NLA; I think I would have remembered the Neptune motif)
If we
have seen it....my apologies.
