  • Background Information Cinema Center (Block 21 Section 35, City)
    April 2021 ACT Heritage Council BACKGROUND INFORMATION CINEMA CENTER (BLOCK 21 SECTION 35, CITY) At its meeting of 1 April 2021, the ACT Heritage Council decided that the Cinema Center was eligible for registration. The information contained in this report was considered by the ACT Heritage Council in assessing the nomination for the Cinema Center against the heritage significance criteria outlined in s10 of the Heritage Act 2004. Image 1. Cinema Center from Bunda Street, (ACT Heritage, 2019) 1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION – CINEMA CENTER HISTORY The population of Canberra grew rapidly in the 1960s. Following a program of public servant transfers from Melbourne in 1956, the population tripled and by 1966 over 96 000 people called the capital home with population growth anticipated to continue at 9 per cent per year1 2. An increase in private investment in commercial development over the decade saw Civic evolve from a “loose arrangement of two storey blocks”3 to a retail and entertainment destination with a three-storey shopping centre (Monaro Mall, 1963) and theatre centre (Canberra Theatre Centre, 1965) catering to Canberra’s growing population4. In the early 1960s Canberra was serviced by three purpose-built cinemas: Capitol Theatre (Manuka), Civic Theatre (Braddon) and the Starlight Drive-in (Watson)5 6. Despite a major slump in cinema attendance following the introduction of television in 1956, by the mid-1960s the industry began to recover and Canberra’s cinemas were in high demand7. In this context local developer Darrel Killen began to explore options for a new independent cinema in Civic, close to the Monaro Mall and Canberra Theatre Centre.
