From my understanding, it used to be in a beautiful old building on the comer of Rundle Street and Pulteney Street, where the Hungry Jack's multi-level car park is.

We are off topic here, but the beautiful old building never housed Cox Foys, it housed their predecessor, Foy and Gibson.

Cox Foys were in what is now Rundle Mall. After their demise the building they were housed in became the Renaissance Centre. Toys'r'Us were housed in that building in the 1990s. I haven't a clue what that building is used for now.

No point being bitter, we had our time in the sun and made the most of it. I know personally I got very complement with all the premierships as they went on and didn't appreciate them as much.
