Co-Op shop, Corner of Vogel and Hayden Streets
- Description
This Co-op dairy was situated on the corner of Hayden and Vogel Street (8 Hayden Street). As can be seen in the images, the shop fronted onto Vogel Street, with a house attached at the back, fronting onto Hayden Street. At the time there were a large number of co-op shops that served the suburban areas of Palmerston North. It continued to operate until about the mid 1980s.
The building was believed to have been demolished by the Samoan Assembly of God (AOG), who subsequently built on the site. The church is first listed at 8 Hayden Street in the telephone directories in 1989 and continues to operate from there to this day (2023).
This image is part of a set of images held by Palmerston North architect, Acton Wylde-Browne, so was probably one he designed. The photographer is from Wellington.
