EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the 1970s, showcasing the main entrance of the new Woolco store at Washington New Town. The image captures a moment in time when modern architecture and convenience were merging seamlessly. The electrically operated doors featured in this picture resemble those found in contemporary airports, highlighting the cutting-edge design of this retail establishment. The vast parking area surrounding the store is also on display, emphasizing the scale and ambition of this development project. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we can't help but marvel at how far our society has come in terms of architectural innovation and urban planning. Located in Tyne and Wear, Washington was an ideal location for such a modern shopping experience. This photograph encapsulates not only the exterior beauty of the building itself but also its significance within a larger context – as part of a new town's growth and progress. While it may be tempting to associate Woolco with commercial use or focus solely on their presence here, let us instead appreciate this image for what it represents: an era defined by forward-thinking design and aspirations for a brighter future.
