Summary

Rundle Street, south side, 9th November 1962. Cox Foys building. Alterations and additions were made to this building in 1962. Cox Foys opened in the mid fifties complete with a ferris wheel and fun fair rides on the open roof top. Next door to this department store stands Adelaide Arcade which was built in 1885 containing fifty shops over two levels. The Coat of Arms above the entrance is unique to Adelaide Arcade. It differs from the official Coat of Arms as it has the kangaroo and emu on opposite sides. Next door to the Arcade stands the Regent Theatre. For site details see B 14543. For a view of a building demolished to make way for additions to Cox Foys in 1961 see B 14211.
