Résumé en anglais
In 2003 fire destroyed a famous Melbourne kiosk.The controversy regarding its possible reconstruction was
addressed by a retrospective assessment of its social(intangible) and other heritage values. Thes values echoed
those of both ancient and seaside pavilions: it was a place ofmusing, intimate meetings, and more boisterous gatherings.
Its modest ornamental form, its big natural setting, and itsaffordable refreshment, were important for promenaders. It
was determined that the spirit of the place could betransmitted by a high quality reconstruction, reinstatement of
the cafe, and interpretation.
