Outside view of the Port Admiral Hotel, located at 55 Commercial Road, on the corner of St. Vincent Street and Commercial Road, Port Adelaide. Renovation work is taking place on the building, the verandah has been removed and cyclone fencing has been put up. Signs on the fencing provide historical background to the hotel. The middle banner advertises a weekend Vintage Festival on Lipson Street. This part of the building faces the intersection of the two roads, with Commercial Road to the left of the photo. The building to the right of the hotel was once occupied by William Russell Pty. Ltd., sailmaker and ship chandler, but appears to now be used for office spaces.
