The Arcade in Murwillumbah, Cnr Wharf St and Queen St. Built in 1952, the building of the Tweed Arcade was big news for Murwillumbah; it was the biggest shopping centre in town at the time. The arcade was to comprise of ten shops and a café and was much anticipated by local residents, who viewed it as a very modern building that “conformed to overseas trends”. The building was designed by Doug Board, son of Frederick Board, who designed the Austral and Marlville buildings.
