Parliament House, State of Queensland, Heritage-listed parliament building in Brisbane, Australia

Parliament House Queensland stands at the corner of George and Alice Streets at Gardens Point, next to the City Botanic Gardens and QUT. Its George Street frontage, completed in 1868 in French Renaissance Revival style with Second Empire elements, has a porte-cochère with a balustraded terrace above. The Alice Street wing was finished in 1889, and the 1979 Parliamentary Annexe forms Speaker's Green with the original building. The original zinc and galvanised iron roof was replaced in the 1980s with sheet copper from Mount Isa.

Queensland's Parliament first met on 22 May 1860 in a former convict barracks on Queen Street. The foundation stone of this building was laid on 14 July 1865 by Sir George Bowen, and builder Joshua Jeays used sandstone from his own quarries. The first section was finished in 1867 and the George Street frontage in 1868; the Alice Street wing followed in 1889.

The site on the George and Alice Street corner was chosen in November 1863, and the design competition offered a 200 guinea prize. Charles Tiffin, the Colonial Architect, won, and amid allegations of undue influence he donated his prize money to Ipswich Grammar School. Stained glass depicting royalty was imported from Birmingham for the windows.

Free guided tours run each weekday; the gift shop is in the main foyer. The building sits on the corner of George and Alice Streets at Gardens Point, beside the Queensland University of Technology and the City Botanic Gardens. The Parliamentary Annexe, completed in 1979, links to the original house around Speaker's Green, used for ceremonies.

This was Australia's first parliament building to receive electrical power, connected via underground cable to the Government Printing Office in 1886. The installation made it a pioneer of modern parliamentary technology ahead of other legislatures elsewhere.
