It must have taken a long time. From Wiki: "In 1965, the Supercentre shopping mall was built above the platforms, the original station buildings survived underneath until demolished during refurbishment in the early 1990s... " en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurstville_railway_station,_Sydney

Mike Kelly Ha! Yes, I think your location is righter. Jolley's store was in that spot. The Hurstville Library has a copy of this image with extensive notes and research, indicating that this photo was taken in the winter of 1926 (between May and August) - libcatalogue.hurstville.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/ENQ...(82845)&CF=PIC&SEARCH_FORM=PA&QRYTEXT=Roadworks,%20Forest%20Road%20Hurstville%20NSW,%201926 Ed.

By 1930 Mr B. Jolley had expanded his premises to include an arcade and the newer art deco building seen in streetview but not here. Read all about it - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/132064136

Gee! This brings back memories. I was born in Hurstville, and grew up at South Hurstville. I remember seeing the movie The Greatest Show on Earth, with James Stewart & Charlton Heston at The Savoy Theatre, located at the top right hand corner of the photo. Also saw Rock around the Clock there as well. I remember catching the Kyle Bay & Connells Point buses from the other side of the paling fence, located above the train in the photo. The Hurstville RSL can be seen at the top left hand side of the photo.
