Stucco (Evening Star 26 July 1927): ‘There are a few piazzian touches about the balcony immediately above the sun porch. The flooring here has also received special attention, being of kauri, and has been constructed exactly in the same way as a ship’s deck. It has a delightful spring to the feet, and should send the least sprightly visitor jazzing along its inviting surface. A unique panoramic view of the city and suburbs is obtained from its rather dizzy eminence.’
