| Juanita Neilsen disappeared from Kings Cross in 1975 |
More importantly- it was on the 4th of July in 1975 that the Sydney campaigning journalist
Juanita Neilsen disappeared after attending a
Kings Cross nightclub in the afternoon to discuss advertising for her small local newspaper
Now. Her body has never been found. Neislen was an heiress to the
Mark Foy's department store fortune and published the newspaper in Kings Cross. She opposed large scale development and managed to get building unions onside who banned work on the beautiful Victorian terrace houses that line
Victoria Street in the Cross. They still stand today.
Whispers has heard several theories on what happened to Neilsen. It's difficult to know the truth except to say such an outrage would never happen today.
