Port Office, Brisbane, Heritage administrative building in Brisbane, Australia

The Port Office at 39 Edward Street features Classical architectural elements with a prominent entry porch and three gable-ended projecting bays connected by verandahs.

Colonial Architect FDG Stanley designed the Port Office in 1879, with builder John Petrie completing the construction for £8,811 adjacent to the previous structure.

The building demonstrates the evolution of maritime administration in Queensland through its role in managing shipping operations and international trade relationships.

The Port Office now contains specialty shops on the ground level and a restaurant on the upper floor, while maintaining its original architectural features.

A tide marker on the wall, replaced after the 1974 floods, serves as a testament to Brisbane's historical relationship with water levels.
