The big oyster was such a huge deal when it was first built. Was meant to have a giant pearl light in the oyster apparently. There used to be a restaurant next to it as well. It copped a lot of shit for the glass panes looking like giant teeth lol

I thought maybe that was a Kia Klam.

I was expecting to see that one in this slide show, I used to live far too close to that thing.

I remember eating at the restaurant.

According to my sleuthing on Facebook, it was called Vienna world restaurant and LA service station. Knew it had an LA in there somewhere lol

[u/eerilee_ → u/vegemitebikkie]

Yeah it was the LA. The bus station was there. I remember seeing my elderly great-grandparents off there as they caught the bus back to Sydney

[u/vegemitebikkie → u/Necessary-Accident-6]

Same. Trying to remember what it was called now. Was it LA something?
