Stowell Street, Stage Door Nightclub

Stowell Street was originally built in the 1820s as a street of townhouses, but is now famous for its nightlife and as the heart of Chinatown. The Stage Door nightclub has been a fixture in the city’s nightlife for decades. The four storey building is unusual in appearance due to the decorative stonework on the façade which separates the bays and decorates the horizontal divisions. The rectilinear patterns on horizontal bands between floors also have circular motifs. LOCAL LIST
