Wickham Terrace Carpark, Heritage-listed car park in Spring Hill, Australia

Wickham Terrace Carpark is a multi-storey reinforced concrete structure on a steeply sloping site between Wickham Terrace and Turbot Street in Spring Hill. Its open grid of rectangular columns with flared tops supports waffle-slab floors, and the entire building forms a ramp with gently sloping floors. A semicircular ramp dominates the eastern end, and a lift tower with a concrete relief pattern by Jim Meldrum stands at the southern end.

Designed by City Architect James Birrell and built by Thiess Brothers in 1959–1960, it was the Brisbane City Council's first parking station, erected in 14 months for £535,000 on the site of a former Red Cross workshop. Funds from street parking meters helped pay for it, and two floors were later added.

The lift tower carries a concrete relief of recessed abstract shapes in a repeating grid, designed by Jim Meldrum. The lift foyer and staircase floors are laid in green and white mosaic tiles, and the tunnel to Central Railway Station is now lined with ceramic tiles. The semicircular exit ramp at the eastern end is the building's most visible feature from the street.

The facility operates 24 hours daily with two vehicle entry points for access. Early bird rates apply to vehicles entering between 5:30 AM and 9:00 AM on weekdays.

An underground tunnel lined with ceramic tiles connects the car park directly to Central Railway Station below. This passage lets travelers move between their cars and trains without going outside.
