Union Hall, University of Adelaide

Why is it Significant?

This modernist theatre by the important SA architectural practice of Woods Bagot Laybourne Smith and Irwin in 1958 meets three criteria for State Heritage Listing but still has only provisional listing as a State Heritage item. 

Why is it at Risk?

The University has consistently objected to State Heritage Listing.The University has lodged an application to demolish to allow the construction of a Photonics building unsympathetic to its heritage neighbours.

What needs to be done?

The building requires State Heritage Listing.
