Scala Street

It was formerly known as Pitt Street but was renamed after the Scala Theatre when this occupied most of its north side.

These were comparatively high density, not allowing space for the workshops required for artisanal use.

In 1964, a scene in the movie, A Hard Day's Night, was shot in the street, in which the Beatles were shown arriving at the back entrance of the theatre and escaping fans by hiding in a canvas workman's hut.

The theatre was demolished after a fire and the site is now occupied by a block called Scala House.
