Luna Park Sydney Cinema Complex

[Bruiser]

Proposed cinema complex at LPS looks interesting?  Not sure what it means for the location of the planned Flying Carousel?  Thought that would go on the old UFO site.

Great find!!

This appears to relate to a DA that was approved in 2005 for construction of a 5 cinema complex that would replace the existing Admin Building.

This proposal is dated 12th January 2018, is for an amendment of this idea for- wait for it- a "Flying Theatre" attraction

The DA  acknowledges that :

Quote

the provision of cinemas within the building retained, although the revised cinema design will be used for a Virtual Reality experience rather than a traditional 2D screen cinema

the retention of key design elements of the development, including the same number of floors, generally the same building envelope, and the inclusion of a rooftop access from the site to the north-east; and  the retention of other entertainment facilities at the site, including the food and drinks premises approved at the ground floor, as well as the provision of a terrace café.

Pretty sure that if this goes ahead, then the space where the Flying Saucer was and where the Flying Carousel is slated to be installed, will be consumed by this project. I will definitely be seeking clarification on this point!!

Once again great find and very positive signs for Luna Park!
