The foundation stone of the building, that was the catalyst for what is now called The Greenside, was laid in 1946. The original architecture lends itself to a sense of grandeur, which has been highlighted to an even greater extent since its renovations in 2010. The décor strikes a perfect balance of classic design with contemporary twists which permeate throughout the space, remaining subtle enough to design and accent according to a particular event, as well as to one’s personal taste.
This venue is sure to make an impact with its more than generous settings, including an eight hundred square metre expanse of warm wooden floored hall which can seat up to 450 people, including a dance floor, double-volume ceiling and walls punctuated with pillared buttresses adorned with impressive yet unimposing taupe Belgian floor to ceiling drapes. A stage, complete with Bechstein baby grand piano and front folding staircase add a touch of class and charm that no other venue can muster.
A welcoming foyer, spacious powder rooms, and a secure parking lot, all surrounded by luscious gardens accented with park benches and Victorian lanterns perched along the walls, allow for multiple options of functionality and liberty of space.
More unique, original decorative elements such as three large and very striking gothic inspired chandeliers remain, with just a slick of paint to bring them back to life. Delicately carved panels inspired by the months of the year decorate either side of the stage, remaining subtle, but apt for a venue that is suited to functions all year round.
