History

The Mactaggart's Woolstore was built in 1926 for the New Zealand Loan and Mercantile Agency Company, one of some sixteen woolstores erected in the first half of the twentieth century along the Brisbane River at Teneriffe. From the mid 1960s the woolstores and their associated wharves were in decline, and many of the woolstores were sold as development sites. [1]

Description

The warehouse is a large building on the edge of the Brisbane River, on the corner of Vernon Terrace and Commercial Rd, within the Woolstores group. It is rectangular, three-storeyed and built of brick, with regularly-spaced windows. The interior was the most intact of any of the woolstores, with wide areas of unpartitioned space and intact fittings. [1] It was converted into apartments in 1995. [2]
