History:

After this brick hotel was demolished, the Austral Theatre was built on its site, also taking over that of a neighbouring shop, and after opening on 15 September 1921, delighted Collingwood cinema-goers for decades. A carpet shop was housed in the former cinema but recently re-located and the owners of the site, now 200-202 Johnston Street, are in the process of finalising plans for a high-rise residential and commercial development.
