Naval Offices, Brisbane, Heritage-listed naval office building in Brisbane City, Australia
The Naval Offices at 3 Edward Street features Arts and Crafts elements with face brickwork, stucco finishes, tall chimneys, and a decorative portico design.
Built between 1900 and 1901, this structure served as the first purpose-built headquarters for Queensland's naval forces during a period of Russian naval concerns.
The building represents the evolution of Australian naval defense, transitioning from Queensland Marine Defence Force to the Royal Australian Navy through federation.
Located midway along Town Reach of Brisbane River, the Naval Offices building stands within a block bounded by Margaret, Edward, and Alice streets.
The structure maintained its original high-ceiling reception area and central stair hall design, demonstrating early twentieth-century administrative architecture.
