Photo from the collections of the Wollongong City Library and the Illawarra Historical Society.
The Civic’s address was given as Kembla Street but that was for the back of the building. The front, as seen above, faced into Civic Square. When the theatre was remodeled a new entrance and lobby was built on Kembla Street.
Coming into this one late, but the photo definitely shows the Kembla St main frontage of the cinema, with the recently opened Council Chambers (now art gallery) to the right.
This frontage was closed off, with a new foyer built to the left linking the remodelled cinema building (now with flat floor but retaining the gallery) with the annex that can be partially seen to the left, which retained a proscenium and curtain for live theatre performances
