Acme Engineering Works, Industrial workshop in Brisbane, Australia
The single-story brick building features a freestyle facade with symmetrical design, arched double-hung sash windows, and an early mezzanine level inside.
Frank Longland designed this engineering workshop in 1912 for Smith and Balls during Queensland's rapid economic expansion between 1903 and 1914.
The building represents early 20th-century industrial architecture and engineering practices that shaped Brisbane's manufacturing development at 125 Margaret Street.
The structure maintains its original features while serving various commercial purposes, from engineering works to chemical wholesale operations over different periods.
Located in Frog's Hollow, an area previously farmed by convict labor in the 1820s, this workshop later became part of Brisbane's engineering district.
