Archive - Minutes, Port Mission Action Group, 1988
The Missions to Seamen building, designed by architect Harry Norris and built in 1937, was located on the site proposed 50 years later for development by the Sandridge Development Company. The building fell into disrepair after it was closed by the church in 1972, but enjoyed a brief and energetic period in 1987-90 when it was used as a community arts centre. These documents record the campaign waged to save the building from demolition. It was demolished in October 1995.Material relating to a campaign to save the Missions to Seamen building, 1987-88: minutes, correspondence and membership details of National Trust-auspiced Port Mission Action Groupmission to seamen, arts and entertainment, mission arts centre, national trust of victoria, harry a norris, pat grainger, barry merat, brian couldrey -
