This is the original facade:

As of mid-2011, fifty years after its demolition, it is still a hole-in-the-ground car park. Progress….

Thanks Ken, I thought for a moment that I was living up to my name!

The basement ballroom is adjacent to the still vacant lot where the Paramount/Odeon Cinema was located. It is in the basement of the apartment block named Paramount Court, and as Doolally states ‘is a lap dancing club, named Spearmint Rhino’.

Don’t think the above comment applies to the Paramount / Odeon – there is no basement remaining after the 1960-ish demolition. The site is still vacant in 2007.

The basement ballroom is now a Lap Dancing Venue! Shame on Spearmint Rhino!
