DETAILS

Full titleCoogee Beach and pier, facing northDatec 1929-1933DescriptionImage taken looking north from an elevated position, possibly from the top of the Grand Pacific Hotel and shows a very crowded Coogee Beach with the amusement pier. Beach Street is visible extending beside the promenade, with cars parked along the edges,and in the distance is the Coogee Bay Hotel, the Coogee Palace Aquairum and the developed north Coogee headland. During this time, Coogee Bay was in its heyday. The newly upgraded resort complete with Pier, shark net, and promenade must have appealed to many sydneysiders faced with the onset of the great depression.LocationsCoogee (N.S.W.)StreetsBeach Street (Coogee, N.S.W.)Geo Tags^[1]Beaches & ParksCoogee Beach (N.S.W.)Houses & Buildings (Detailed entries)Coogee Pier (Coogee, N.S.W.)Coogee Pavilion (Coogee, N.S.W.)Organisations (Detailed entries)Coogee Bay Hotel (Coogee, N.S.W.)Organisations (Brief entries)Coogee Palace Aquarium (Coogee, N.S.W.)SubjectsBeachesPiersBeachgoersStreetscapesAutomobilesCarsSourceRandwick City LibraryFile FormatJPEGIdentifierC00160Request accessClick here to purchase a high-res file quoting the Identifier above
