Oriental Dance Hall near the top of Symonds Street.
I have danced at the Orange and the Peter Pan.
Peter Pan had a sprung floor. When it was made into a night club,
Mainstreet, they covered the floor with another floor, to preserve it.
I can remember a girl got shot and killed outside there, very sad.
Cook Street Market in the basement of the Ace of Clubs and the Browns Mill market. The McKenzies store on the corner of Queen Street and Vulcan Lane. George Courts in K Rd.
