The Growing Town of Lae

We understand that the site allocated for the hotel was on or near the site on which the church now stands. But Mrs. F. Stewart preferred to build, her hotel down on the flat.

Lae’s business community thought they did too, but one by one they are re building on the Terrace.

TOP: The un usual and attractive Catholic Church which has a com manding position on the edge of the Terrace. Between this new church and the modern picture theatre and its attendant shops, is the unfortunate war time structure known as Lae Hospital. Lae is to get a new hos pital someday.

LOWER: This fine new building is being erected on the Terrace at Lae, NG, for the Lae Club.
