Eastlink hotel
The EastLink hotel is a sculpture designed by Callum Morton.
It was unveiled on 27 November 2007 and cost A$1.2 million to construct. It is situated along EastLink, a toll road located in Victoria, Australia.
During the night, windows randomly light up, giving the illusion of several “hotel” guests.
In popular culture
In April 2019, American folk punk band Violent Femmes released their album Hotel Last Resort, which features a photograph of the hotel on its cover.
