Manly Bathers Pavilion. Sydney Harbour beach not the ocean beach.

Top: as it is this afternoon with a net shark pool for swimmers.
Middle left: A busy weekend 1930s to 1960s.
Middle right: Swimming, high diving, water shows from 1930s to 1960s.
Bottom left: looking the other way (north) the promenade was built in 1931.
Bottom right: A storm surge in 1974 destroyed the wooden promenade. And it was never rebuilt.
