St Andrews Anglican Church, South Brisbane, Anglican church in South Brisbane, Australia

St Andrew's Anglican Church is a large Gothic-style church on Vulture Street, South Brisbane, cruciform in plan and built of Brisbane tuff. It has a portico at the front, a chancel at the western end, a small vestry north of the chancel and a half-built tower to the south. The steeply pitched gable roof is slate, and large stained glass windows fill the ends of the chancel, portico and transepts.

St Andrew's was built in stages in 1878–1883, 1887 and 1931–1932 as parish funds allowed. Governor Arthur Kennedy laid the foundation stone on 30 November 1878, but work stopped when the walls reached 6 feet (1.8 m) because Andrea Stombuco's design exceeded the parish's means. The chancel, transepts and first nave bay were completed by builder James O'Keeffe and dedicated on 6 June 1883 by Bishop Matthew Hale. The nave was finished in 1931–1932 under Lange Leopold Powell; Stombuco's tower and spire were never built.

The church serves as a gathering place for the Anglican community and regularly hosts concerts and social events that bring people together in the neighborhood.

The church is easily accessible by public transportation and located near local bus routes. Check the official website ahead of your visit for information about service times and any special events.

The architect's original design included a tower and spire that were never built, leaving the roofline different from the initial plans. This unrealized part of the design often goes unnoticed when visitors first see the building.
