  • BEATTY PARK LEISURE CENTRE CONSERVATION PLAN Vincent
    BEATTY PARK LEISURE CENTRE CONSERVATION PLAN Vincent Street, North Perth September 2007 for the Town of Vincent Job No. 04183 With Robin Chinnery, Historian Cover Image: Original entrance to the Beatty Park Leisure Centre. Image courtesy Town of Vincent. Page i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Town of Vincent commissioned this Conservation Plan to assist them in conserving and developing the Beatty Park Leisure Centre to assure its future. Apart from being a very important part of the Town and State’s heritage, it is the Town of Vincent’s most significant trading enterprise. A separate conservation plan will be commissioned for the remainder of the park. The pool and spectator stands were developed in 1962 for the VII th British Empire and Commonwealth Games and substantial additions were made in 1993-4, changing the focus of the venue towards leisure rather than a venue for training elite athletes. The whole of the place is a busy working facility and there is a need to upgrade the 1962 facilities in particular. The Town is considering a major refurbishment and upgrade of the stands and pool area to meet with contemporary standards and expectations, and this prospect precipitated the need for a conservation plan. The 1962 structure is under- utilised with, for example, only a fraction of the stand seating being used, and there are some re-planning possibilities to consider to make the operation as a whole perform better, which may give rise to the consideration of alternative uses for some of the spaces under the 1962 stands. As the place is included in the Register of Heritage Places and registered as Beatty Park and Beatty Park Leisure Centre , the Conservation Plan is intended to assist the Town of Vincent and the Heritage Council of Western Australia to assess the impact of proposed change on cultural heritage values and the conservation of the place.
