Luminar Leisure Ltd was granted a licence to open the 'Oceana' nightclub in 2006, which involved converting Unity House into the venue.
There were concerns, however, from the police that it might increase crime, anti-social behaviour and noise in the city centre.
In April 2008, the plans for this 2,000-capacity superclub in Wakefield have failed in the High Court.
Unity House was formerly the headquarters of the 'Wakefield Industrial Co-Operative Society'. Some twenty years after this building was built co-op became a household name!

Men standing in front of the Unity Pool Room, located at 795 Main Street (between the C.P. Railway and Jarvis). This building also housed the Railway Porter's union (a primarily black occupation) for many years.
Many men in Winnipeg's small black population were employed as porters, and many in the early and mid-20th century lived along Sutherland and Higgins Avenue, close to the C.P. station. This small neighborhood within a neighborhood was invariably known as "the Black Belt" or "the Loop," and anchored by the Porter's Union and businesses at 795 Main, and Pilgrim Baptist Church on Maple and Macdonald Avenue, which still exists as a thriving, largely black congregation at this location.

After a most interesting & satisfying day of meeting & photographing people it was dinner time with my beloved bride-to-be who always puts a smile in my face (whether she realizes it or not). What a way to end a days shoot ... :-D

It is our custom to categorize. This fits in a square hole, that in a circular. We separate things to understand them. We have become so accustomed to this that we’ve even separated our selves into world shaping categories: man/woman; Faithful/pagan; Democrat/Republican; Gryffindor/Slytherin
.
There is a unity to all things that gets lost when you look too close. The irony will be lost on the empiricist, convinced they are piece by piece solving the puzzle of the universe. This myopic approach has its purpose, and perhaps it has served us to get so far as a society, as a species.
.
But maybe now, with all we’ve learned, we can afford to zoom out and synthesize. See the currents that move us all, the cycles that we work within, the great framework that defines all things.
Our categories once served to galvanize us into action by opposition. We’ve raised cities, populations, created and invented, and plateaued the Era of Oppositions. Time to let go. Old categories no longer serve in a world that can provide for us all, where we can thrive together if only we so choose.

Go outside. Breathe in. Your air comes from the ballet between mountains, the sea, the sun, the dust blowing in great clouds across Mongolia and the the creatures that have never seen the sun’s light but wouldn’t exist without it. You are a part of this. We all are. Let’s see ourselves as moving together within this system, seek our rhythm. Start by feeling yourself as a part of everything, and you will feel everything as a part of you. Categories will lose their power to control you, and accordingly your power to use their understanding will grow.
Go outside.
Breathe.

This is an example of unity because the rocks all have the same colour scheme. The symbol itself is also a form of unity. I used texture and form to make the principle of unity.
Unity Reggae Band put on a great show last night. I've seen them perform several times at Marshy Point's Popsicle Plunge, where they freeze their butts off entertaining the plungers and guests. I was looking forward to hearing what they sound like when they have a good sound man at the controls, and they certainly didn't disappoint.
The Maryland Military Department celebrated Unity Day, an event designed to enhance cross-cultural awareness and promote harmony, May 22, 2014, at the Fifth Regiment Armory in Baltimore. Unity Day included displays, artifacts, games/activities, food samples from the different groups as well as live music and dancing. This year's theme was celebrating women. (Photo by Staff Sgt.

In the course of my conversation with Mr.Amin after taking his photograph these pair of twins came walking out of the LRT station behind us. They were not to keen on idle chit-chat but did not object to me taking their picture which made me very happy. :-D
