Ministry of Education, Marlborough, Nelson, West Coast

Headquarters, or similar, I assume. It's new, and it is next to The Nelson Contact Bridge Club Inc.

It used to be the gang headquarters, and no, I don't have a picture of it back then; The Bridge Club has always been there. Must have been an interesting neighborhood; it's almost part of the Central Business District nowadays.

Gang, as in violent or organized crime gang?

Amazing how buildings house such varied tenants over the years, lol.

Yes, crime gang, but the building is new. Formerly it was surrounded with high, corrugated iron fences with, from memory, barbed wire tops. But I could be wrong. I didn't know it what it was back then. In fact, I didn't go to this area much back then. My friend Trish, who grew up in Nelson and started playing bridge, pointed out the ... interesting combination to me only about a year or so ago.
