The Foodstore at 103 Beach Street closed last Friday. This is a blow for the Beacon Cove community. The BCNA tried to get the closure deferred, but this was not possible.
The availability of a local store has become more important now that travel is more restricted. The owners are open to the idea of a short-term tenancy.
The BCNA has approached the Port Melbourne Business Association, the IGA group and the City of Port Phillip about the situation and the availability of the site.
The closing of the Foodstore has another implication - our post box there is no longer accessible. As a result
The BCNA has changed its postal address to:
Private Box 5042, Garden City Vic 3207
Please ensure any correspondence to the BCNA (eg membership renewals) is sent to the new address.
This is the web voice of the Beacon Cove Neighbourhood Association, Inc., Port Melbourne, Australia. It provides information on who the association is, our aims and aspirations for our shared community, and information on our activities.
