How many remember when the Fischers Hotel on York Street was demolished? Or the King George at McNab and Market? Or the Wentworth Arms or the Triton? How many remember the Royal Connaught strike in 1980 and the management threat to turn the hotel into a Parking Lot and Harry Greenwood of the Labour Council called their bluff and won the day. Get my drift? threatening to demolish a building is todays protest, demolishing the building is soon yesterdays news.
