Pact Youth Theatre 107 Railway Parade Erskineville

Unique IDPC-000012Creator/ArchitectHarold S FredmanTypeBuildingDescriptionWhen the Corn Exchange Building in Sussex Street was to be renovated the occupant, Pact Youth Theatre, was offered a lease on the former Strong Products warehouse at the corner of Sydney Street and Railway Parade. The warehouse ‘Store A’ appears to have been built around 1962/3. Council purchased this site from Strong Products in the early 1980s (file ref 33 01 0067). The City’s book bindery was moved from the QVB to the site in 1983 (file ref 22 01 0022). It was then leased to Pact in 1985 (file ref 32 16 0512). In 1985 a DA was submitted to use as a youth and community performance space, with alterations (file ref Y02/03275)
The original building at the Clara Street corner of the site, constructed circa 1940, originally housed the McConnell Building Company, file 241/58 shows McConnell & Fear as builders for Strong Products, the company which later occupied the site.
