So it goes.
I found a
list of (mostly) closures and openings in developed and emerging economies.
Hadn't the Sydney HRC been closed for a long time after a fire in recent years?
I agree that the heyday was over around 1990 if not before; what happened to all of the memorabilia? Recycled to the new openings in the Pacific and central Europe?
We also had some memorable birthday parties there, long ago, in Sydney. ;D
