Hollywood Cinema, Historic cinema building in Avondale, Auckland, New Zealand
The Hollywood Cinema building features a prominent brick facade with columns, wide stairs, and a characteristic dome on the roof.
Originally constructed in 1867 as Avondale Public Hall, the structure underwent major renovations in 1915, establishing its current architectural appearance.
The venue transformed from a multi-purpose community hall into a dedicated cinema space, screening films continuously from silent movies to digital projections.
Located at 20 St Georges Road in Avondale, the cinema provides modern screening facilities while maintaining its traditional architectural elements.
The building housed a Wurlitzer Organ that enhanced film screenings with live music during Jan Grefstad's ownership period from 1966 onwards.
