I was on an evening walk with my husband, not long after we had moved to Hamilton, when we encountered what we thought was a nightclub with a line of people waiting to enter. A little surprised that our new suburb apparently had a nightclub, we crossed the street. Looking back, we saw that the building creating so much anticipation was the Masonic Hall, alias The Depot.

Masonic Hall
The queue surged with a life of its own along Beaumont
Street. An excited buzz rose from the young crowd, dressed to dazzle in their
up-to-the-minute gear.

Gelateria Arena
She was working full time at the age of 11, travelled alone
by ship from Genoa (Italy) to Sydney to marry a man she had not seen for five
years, and cooked meals for 60 diners a night in a cafe in Beaumont Street,
Hamilton. And by the way, Silvia Saccaro raised three children.

Missing from Beaumont Street
'All these shops, but
nowhere to buy a nail!'
This was my husband’s recurring lament, after we moved to live in Hamilton. We love being in close walking distance to a wide range of shops and services. It wasn’t long, though, before we discovered some serious gaps in the retail mix.
