The Westgarth Cinema, on the corner of Barry Street and High Street, Northcote was officially opened on 20 October 1921.
The builder was 26 year old John Seccull of Barry Street. During the 1930s the upper two stories were added. There is no proof that it's architect was Walter Burley Griffin. "Architect: M.E.C. Yeomans" see http://www.cinematour.com/tour/au/155.html .
