Beaurepaires Springvale Demolition
A not-so-old Beaurepaires car service centre, built using the tilt-up slab system, undergoing demolition on the corner of Westall Road and Osborne Avenue in August 2014. It had remained vacant for some months before demolition.
The chain was founded in 1922 by Sir Frank Beaurepaire, an Australian swimmer in the early 20th century. He went on to serve as Lord Mayor of Melbourne and in the Victorian Legislative Assembly and was a key delegate sent to London to win for Melbourne the right to host the 1956 Olympic Games. He died of a heart attack before the Games were took place.
