Porirua pauses plan to demolish hall linked to US Marines

Reporter Community News

What should the Porirua City Council do with a 78 year-old former US Marine Hall?

The hall was built by American soldiers in 1942 and used as a recreational facility. It has been used as a home for the Porirua Little Theatre since the 1970s.

Structural problems led to closure in 2012 and six years later the council decided to demolish it.

Now, the council has asked for the process to be put on hold, so they can talk to the community about ways to commemorate the building.
