Developers in Sydney, Australia, have issued an apology after bulldozing the childhood home of AC\/DC<\/strong> rockers Malcolm<\/strong> and Angus Young<\/strong>, the <\/span>Herald Sun<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a> reports.<\/span><\/p>\n

Burwood Square Pty Ltd purchased the home in February 2023 and recently demolished it,\u00a0something that shouldn’t have happened because\u00a0in 2013\u00a0the property was added to the National Trust List of Historic Homes. The company claims\u00a0it was not informed of the home\u2019s historical significance.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe regret that the previous long-term owner did not share this vital part of the property\u2019s background with us,\u201d Burwood Square Pty Ltd general manager Leon Kmita<\/strong> said. \u201cLearning about this connection after our plans were already underway has shocked us. We are genuinely sorry for this oversight.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The company went on to share\u00a0its \u201cheartfelt regret\u201d at the demolition, noting, \u201c[W]e now recognize how deeply this location resonates with the AC\/DC community and fans worldwide.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u00a0also said\u00a0it is hoping to use material from the site to create a \u201cspecial space\u201d so fans \u201ccan gather to celebrate the band\u2019s enduring legacy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe feel a strong responsibility to honor AC\/DC\u2019s legacy and to make amends to all the fans who hold this band in such high regard,\u201d Kmita added. \u201cWhile we cannot change the past, we are dedicated to celebrating this significant part of their story.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He adds, \u201cTo the global fanbase of AC\/DC, please know that we hear you, appreciate your deep admiration for this legendary band, and are devoted to making this right.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Young family moved into the home in 1963 after arriving in Sydney from Scotland. The Young brothers went on to found the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band at the home in 1973. Burwood plans to build a residential development on the site.<\/span><\/p>\n
