Public Transport Centre, Brutalist transportation building in East Perth, Australia
The Public Transport Centre features brown brick and concrete construction, with strong geometric forms defining its architectural presence in the urban landscape.
Built and officially opened in 1976, the Public Transport Centre emerged during a period when Perth experienced substantial growth in public infrastructure development.
The building represents the architectural movement of brutalism that gained prominence in Western Australia during the 1960s and 1970s through local architect Tony Brand.
The center functions as a major transportation hub in East Perth, coordinating multiple bus services and facilitating transfers between different public transport modes.
Located within a bitumen area and enclosed by wire fencing, the structure stands as one of Perth's remaining examples of raw concrete brutalist architecture.
