Subiaco - Station St Markets Station Street Markets is now the size of a postage stamp compared to what it used to be. Pity about all the lost stalls and outside dining area. I wonder if they will come back? This is near the Station Street entrance. January 2011 |

|
Subiaco - Old Markets Subiaco Markets has been a long-time attraction here on the corner of Roberts Street and Rokeby Road. Alas here it is all boarded up and silently awaiting demolition. A great pity for Subiaco. January 2008 |
|
|
|
Subiaco - Old Markets What is the difference between this photo and the one above? Answer = 3 years. Still the same - nothing's been done - pity those stall-holders were given their notice to quit all that time ago. I wonder what's being gained? January 2011 |

|
Subiaco - Regal Theatre The Regal Theatre on the corner of Hay Street and Rokeby Road is an icon as well-known as Subiaco itself. Rumour has it that this thespian enclave is due for the chop at well. Boo hoo. Jan 2008 |

|
Subiaco - Train Station Walking back up Rokeby Road from Hay Street, here is the train station complex. The train lines are underground. One time there was a fine old wooden train station here. The old station has been preserved and now lives proudly in Whiteman Park. I like that leaning clock tower and mirror! Jan 2008 |

Subiaco - Subiaco Square The shopping arcade looks decidedly empty this Saturday afternoon. For some reason this area didn't seem to take off and there have been empty shops up the end there, or tenants that come and go fairly frequently over the years. January 2011 |

Subiaco - Totterdell Terrace These terraced houses on Bagot Road look fantastic. Are they old or new or a bit of both? In keeping with the practice from many years ago, the builders/renovators have inscribed on the upper building its name and date. January 2011 |
