Fremantle Court House (fmr) and Police Station Complex by Andrew Priest, on Flickr

The Fremantle Courthouse (fmr) and Police Station Complex, comprising a limestone Courthouse (1899), Lock-up, (1898), two blocks of two-storey terraces of Police Barracks (fmr) (1897 and 1903), Artillery Drill Hall (fmr) (1896), and Police Station (1978 are today considered areas of cultural heritage significance.

The place formed part of the original convict grant and in the 1850s was the site of Warder’s Cottages (extant in Henderson Street), the Sappers’ and Miners’ Barracks (no longer extant) and of gardens associated with the Fremantle Convict Establishment.

The Police Station Complex over its 150-year history has been the location of buildings housing the institutions that represent law and order in Fremantle and the State; from the 1880s the place has been the site of the Fremantle Police Station and former Courthouse which relocated to be close to Fremantle Prison when it was transferred to colonial control and is visually part of the area associated with Fremantle Prison, a focal point of the City of Fremantle.

Today, the complex is no longer used as a Police Station and stands empty as options as to its future are considered.

Archival record shop & residence by Andrew Priest, on Flickr

It is interesting what turns up in a Google search. This building, 140 South Street, White Gum Valley, Western Australia was at some point in its life an archival record shop and residence. Sadly, it does not warrant heritage listing and so may well face the wrath of the redeveloper.

Avis in what was known as the Queensgate car park building pre the Kings Square redevelopment. Another long-term memory of modern Fremantle gone.

Shanghai Creative Park - A gathering place for fashion designers and painters. To me it is more like a community of lay-back lifestyle as it is packed with galleries, coffeeshops and bars.

the park used to be an abandoned slub mill which had been operating for nearly 100 years until 1992. the owner of the mill decided turning the workshops and warehouses into art galleries and the park opened to public in 2000.

I love my smartphone camera. The limits of the form factor force you to think and plan your shots. You can't edit them too much, and they don't hold up well with radical crops. But the results can be good and the size is wonderful.
