Everyday Icons / Hiding In Plain Sight (Abu Dhabi)
No.0023 - (Old) Department of Finance, Al Mawasim Street, Abu Dhabi
This is an interesting one… it wasn’t on my list. I’ll be honest - I didn’t even know it existed despite passing close on many occasions!
Tucked away behind a number of generic towers the old Department of Finance building (as it’s tagged on Google Maps) now sits empty and in need of urgent attention.
Its got some lovely architectural elements so I really hope something will be done to rescue this building before it’s demolished to be replaced by who-knows-what.
