Buildings in the park

Postby Killa » 10 Dec 2005, 13:01

Hi all,

just wondering after looking at aerial photos, which buildings remain? does the rather attractive arcade building in the now fenced off area at the far left of the park (looking from seafront) remain? which buildings are they demolishing? (albeit probably illegally)
You can't beat that top buzz feeling!

I believe that the arcade building you refer to still stands. It is protected by the Scenic listing. The buildings being demolished are not being demolished illegally (to the best of my knowledge) as they are not covered by the Scenic Railway or Cinema listing, either because they are not within the curtilage of the park or were built before 1948.
