[https://www.flickr.com/photos/beachcomberaustralia] Fancy seeing you here Beachie. You can blame my father's cousin for the demolition of the cinema. He was a Landscape Architect and was involved in the construction of the Warringah Expressway. www.smh.com.au/national/peter-spooner-architect-shaped-at...
