Forster's new Surf Life Saving Clubhouse

Sunday challenge 103 - Characterful building

We had brunch at the beachfront cafe nearby 4th July 2024.

Forster's new surf life saving clubhouse is nearly complete.

The new facilities are set to help volunteers to be better equipped when keeping the community safe in and around the water.

The old clubhouse was demolished in the weeks following the final surf patrol, which was held on ANZAC Day (25 April) 2022.

The building was the second of its kind, with the first Forster SLSC building located on Pilot Hill above the current clubhouse site. The first building collapsed in a storm in 1960.

A very welcome addition to the community. The plans are looking good, and the old red brick building next door is scheduled to go.

We don't have too many characterful buildings, in these coastal towns. Some great colonial architecture in Sydney, Brisbane, etc. and some of the larger hostorical towns like Port Macquarie. So, a tough challenge for me...

Géométrie des contraires, modernité au service de la sécurité. Belle idée et commentaire très intéressant.
