Brisbane Central Technical College
Brisbane Central Technical College, Technical education heritage site in Brisbane, Australia.
The Brisbane Central Technical College complex consists of nine red brick buildings arranged around a central courtyard at 2 George Street.
Founded in 1908 under the Technical Instruction Act, the college merged several existing institutions to establish a comprehensive technical education center in Queensland.
The college buildings incorporate industrial and Arts and Crafts architectural elements, featuring arched entrances, detailed stonework, and large windows throughout the complex.
The institution provided specialized training facilities for engineering, chemistry, and wool-classing studies, adapting its spaces to meet educational requirements over time.
The site housed the University of Queensland Library during the 1930s while maintaining its role as a technical education provider for thousands of students.
