“The Raymond”, 68 Elizabeth Bay Road
was designed by architect E N Vennard and completed in the late 1920s. It is a rare
example of the Commercial Palazzo style, that great idiom of 1920s office building design, applied to a residential building. This building was the first of the so-called blocks of “luxury flats” to be erected in Elizabeth Bay. Its vestibules and lift lobbies are remarkably intact and relatively refined.
