Woolloongabba Police Station, former police station in Woolloongabba, Brisbane, Australia

Woolloongabba Police Station is a two-storey masonry building with a basement, completed in 1913 to a design by the Queensland Department of Public Works. Its plan divides a two-storey residence for the senior officer from a two-storey barracks with dayroom and mess for constables. In 1936–37 a three-storey brick building was added at the rear, linked by gangways at each floor, along with a brick garage.

Woolloongabba's first police station was a rented house on Stanley Street; by 1888 it moved to a rented house on Ipswich Road. The present two-storey masonry building, designed under Government Architect A.B. Brady, was completed in 1913 at a contract sum of £4,539. It became headquarters of the South Coast Police District in 1937, and in 1936–37 gained north and south additions plus a three-storey brick building at the rear.

The building stands on busy Main Street and is a visual landmark in the area. The way it fits into the historic streetscape shows how important police stations were to the community.

The former station faces Main Street at numbers 842–848, at the corner of Vulture Street, opposite the former Quarry Reserve land. The site is on foot from the Woolloongabba Fiveways and the busway station; the building is a heritage place, not open as a museum, so view the exterior from the footpath.

During the Great Depression, a separate relief office operated in the basement where officers helped unemployed people with rations. These rooms had their own entrance from Main Street, showing how police stations went beyond law enforcement to support communities.
