        This is the building currently being revamped for Moana Chambers.
        MOP ( Museum Of Perth ) is collecting information on the history which was EzyWalkin and the old Sanity Records Store.
        Those cabinets in the photo are still there as i went for a walk through just 2 weeks ago.
        The address is for 618 Hay street Perth.

    This particular shop was located on Hay Street, Perth. I think this shop was a shoe shop that made and sold shoes.
    It is located on 618 Hay Street, Perth.

    I typed in Ezywalkin Shoe Store into google maps, on street view. The stairs and old banisters helped me identify the shop that used to be there.

    Ezywalkin originated in England, Europe

    The picture is of an old shoe shop called ‘ezywalkin’. The shop is located 618 Hay Street, Perth. I found this out by typing ezywalkin by typing it into google and comparing the picture that it gave me to the picture that I was given.

    On 618 Hay Street, Perth, there used to be the Ezywalkin Shoe Store.

    You will not find this shoe store in google maps (street view) since it now does not exist.

    The method I used was to find this was:
    1. I typed Ezywalkin WA in google
    2. I clicked on the first link
    3. I clicked on the image link
    4. It brought me to an photo from 1929 when the store was still there

    The ezywalkins store is in Moana Hay Street, Perth. Its exact coordinates are (-31.953513, 115.857047).
    To find this answer I first searched up an ezywalkins image. When I saw the exact image which you used, I clicked on it and it told me the location.
    To find the coordinates I simply searched up: ‘Latitude and Longitude finder. When I found the website, I simply typed: ‘ezywalkins Perth.’
    It told me the exact coordinates.

    That’s how I found the answer! 🙂

      Thanks for your answer, Carly. Which website gave you the answer about the exact address? I am confused about it being an online shoe shop. Can you check your dates on when it first started and work out if the Internet was around then?
      Cheers

    Hi Ms. Lockyer, Avery and I found out that the Ezywalkin place is a shoe shop at Moana Hay Street. We found out by typing Ezywalkin Perth and went to images, the name of the image said where it is.
    This place is closed down already, we used google maps and found nothing and we found that in the description of where in the world 8 it said: Can you tell what kind of place it once was?
