Margate By Night Art Print, Featuring the Art Deco Dreamland Cinema and Brutalist Arlington Towers. What struck me on my first ever visit to Margate was this mammoth brutalist tower block as you exit the station... and just ahead an art deco cinema. It's not often that such a contrast presents itself. Arlington House was built with white concrete cladding containing mica flecks which caused it to sparkle in the sunlight, and the purposefully angular facade mimics the rolling waves whilst enabling every flat to have a beach view. While one might say it's not the prettiest from the outside but the view from within would be I imagine is unparalleled. Dreamland was built on the site of a variety theatre and originally seated more than 2,000. As well as the auditorium, the Grade II listed building had a large cafe with a view out to sea, bars and ballroom. Illustrating these two iconic landmarks as a night scene, I think makes it look a bit futuristic or perhaps dystopian.
