Fun fair at Macquarie St Liverpool NSW 1980.
Original Westfield Shoppingtown at left, Phoenix Plaza at right.
Named Phoenix coz it was built on the ashes of the original.
This vista was all gobbled up by Westfield in the mid-90s.

My good mate Justin Rosniak was in the original Cottee’s TV commercial - 10 seconds into the commercial from ’88. He’s played in a heap of great Aussie movies and TV shows. Some might remember him from Packed to the Rafters and Mr Inbetween.
