Yungaba Immigration Centre, Immigration center at Kangaroo Point, Brisbane, Australia.
The three-story building features a symmetrical cruciform plan with two towers and decorative cast iron balustrade panels along its verandahs.
The facility opened in 1887 and served as a military hospital during World War I before becoming a residence for returning servicemen.
The name Yungaba comes from the Gubbi Gubbi Aboriginal language and translates to place of sunshine in English.
The heritage-listed building at 102 Main Street underwent a transformation in 2019, converting the former immigration depot into residential apartments.
This structure became the first building protected under the Cultural Record Act in 1987, marking a milestone in Queensland's heritage preservation.
