Goldman Lane is named
Council named the lane leading from Gumtree Lane to Knox Street Goldman Lane, presumably after the serving alderman.
Earlier history
Before 1985
Earlier neighbourhood and cinema context. The cinema addresses are not the premises at 338–340.
The Vogue, across the street
Sam Hood’s photographs record the Art Deco Vogue Theatre at 377–379 New South Head Road. It was across the street from the premises at 338–340, not the same building.
Sources and record notes
The photograph series is dated 13 May 1938. A separate council catalogue says screenings began on 17 June 1938; these descriptions are kept distinct.
The lanes from above
A historical aerial shows the New South Head Road shop strip and the lanes behind it. The image provides neighbourhood context rather than individual property boundaries.
Sources and record notes
The Village Twin
The former Vogue became the Village Twin. A newspaper report published on 30 November announced two stacked auditoria, seating 500 and 400, opening the following day.
