Parliament Square, Hobart (Winter 2010)

Digital Innovations Preservation, Tasmania

A proposed re-development of Hobart’s Parliament Square would have resulted in several 20th Century buildings being demolished, including the 1960s office block 10 Murray Street, and the 1950s Art Deco former Government Printing Offices.

The proposal has now been rejected after RMPAT (the Resource Management Planning Appeal Tribunal) refused the application for development. For a full description of the decision, go to http://www.themercury.com.au/images/uploads/images/uploads/parliament-square-knockback.pdf.
