[2] In 1962, Page Newman built the Nobby Beach chairlift that later formed part of the Magic Mountain entertainment park.

In 1983, the new owner commenced intensive development with A$13.6 million spent to extend the Magic Mountain theme park.

[2][1][3] Magic Mountain closed in mid 1987 and remained a derelict unused site until 1991 when the land was cleared and subdivided into two portions in 1995.

The defunct site was briefly used as a set for a scene in the remake of the TV series Mission Impossible.

The land was sold and is now the site of restaurants, shops and predominantly, Magic Mountain Resort Apartments, named in its memory.
