Item Detail
Summary
Central Arcade ran from Wellington Street (opposite the Railway Station) to Murray Street along what became Forrest Place. The building was replaced with a much wider street and the Padbury Buildings which were built on a smaller footprint on Forrest Place in 1924. In this photograph the Murray Street facade is being demolished. Some interior photographs of the arcade captioned that they are now being demolished are published in the Western Mail 10 August 1922, p.8 S (Supplement)
