New Cambridge Social Centre Opened

Occu­py Cam­bridge is proud to announce the open­ing of the new cam­bridge social cen­tre.

Occu­py Cam­bridge, a (rather bril­liant) group of squat­ters, anar­chists, rev­o­lu­tion­ists, land rights types and gen­er­al social mis­fits, last night “reclaimed” the dis­used bin­go hall on hob­son street .

The build­ing will now be used as a social cen­tre of some kind, although this is very much a blank can­vas.

There was a cin­e­ma on the site of the old Gala Bin­go Hall on Hob­son Street from 1921 called The Cen­tral Cinema(it was rebuilt in 1930 to give the cur­rent build­ing prob­a­bly after a fire). The first talkie in Cam­bridge was screened at The Cen­tral Cin­e­ma in 1929 and that talkie was “The Broad­way Melody”

By 1972 (this date is dis­put­ed), the then Odeon, was shut down and con­vert­ed into a bin­go hall.
