Cliffside Apartments, Heritage apartment building at Lower River Terrace, Kangaroo Point, Queensland, Australia.
Cliffside Apartments is a five-story brick building at Lower River Terrace in Kangaroo Point with eight separate apartments. The structure features distinctive hexagonal bay windows and load-bearing cavity walls overlooking the Brisbane River.
The building was constructed between 1936 and 1937 under the direction of architect R. Martin Wilson. It showcases how residential design evolved during the interwar period in Australia.
The building was developed by Doris Regina Booth, a woman making major real estate investments at a time when few women did so. The way the apartments were designed reflects what people at the time saw as modern, comfortable living.
The building sits by the river and is easily reached on foot via Lower River Terrace. The clifftop location offers good views and clear orientation for visitors exploring the area.
The building was cleverly built into the slope to minimize the need for stairs and improve access. Inside, dedicated laundry chutes made everyday life more practical for residents.
