The place, whilst having some historic value, has had numerous changes over the years, which has erased much of the original detail and the layout of the Hotel. As such it is considered that the place does not have a sufficient degree of cultural heritage value to warrant inclusion on the Town's Municipal Heritage Inventory. PROPERTY STATUS: The Council at its Ordinary Meeting held on 7 November 2006 resolved to exclude the place at Nos. 272 - 282 Lord Street, Perth (Norwood Hotel) from the Town's Municipal Heritage Inventory. 1.0 ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE The Policy ‘ Heritage Management – Assessment ’, adopted by the Council at its Ordinary Meeting held on 17 January 2006, has been used to determine the cultural heritage significance of the place. 1.1 PRINCIPAL HISTORIC THEMES • What people did for a living HISTORIC SUB THEMES • Retail and commercial businesses 1.2 AESTHETIC VALUE (Criterion 1: It is significant in exhibiting particular aesthetic characteristics valued by the community.)

  • Steam Whistles on the Swan
    STEAM WHISTLES ON THE SWAN \ ., • .0. .'.' :. I ~ ', . ~ . a ' rRt"'''HP.( fROM , "lIlDIltt!, .. ..' Rod Dickson Illustration courtesy State Library of Western Australia (Battye Library) Report: Department of Maritime Archaeology Western Australian Maritime Museum, No.70 Steam Whistles on the Swan Introduction While researching the history of the shipbuilders of Western Australia from 1829 onwards I became increasingly aware of the beginnings of steam transport on the Swan River. From reading other accounts of this part of our history I decided to make this part of my study a separate entity, confining myself to the first twenty years 1839 to 1859, as this is the period during which proposals were formulated,companies formed and to the actual introduction of steam powered vessels plying on the Swan. It follows through those first tempestuous years when our pioneers designed and built not only the hulls but the machinery as well. From boilers made of waggon wheels and hand forged and turned parts, Thomas William Mews and Solomon Cook produced our first river steamboat. That it was a failure may have perplexed and upset them, but, in the face of adversity and a supercilious press they returned to the boat shed and blacksmith shop and started again, and again. Without men like them our Maritime Heritage would have been so much the poorer. Interwoven in this story is the history of a little steamer named 'Les Trois Amis which was built on the river Thames at Northfleet,Kent,England, which steamed halfway round the world to take her place in our history as a river steamer and coaster.

  • Applying Frontier Theory to a Western Australian Site: the Problem of Chronological Control
    AUSTRALASIAN HISTORICAL ARCHAEOLOGY, 10, 1992 Applying Frontier Theory to a Western Australian Site: The Problem of Chronological Control GAYENAYTON It has been suggested that frontier research could become a major focus for Australian historical archaeologists. Yet lack ofsubstantive research indicates that there is a problem in applyingfrontier theory to the archaeological record in Australia. This paper highlights the methodological problem caused by rapid change on archaeological sites. Artefact classes are examined for their usefulness as chronological markers and a modified application of South's Mean Ceramic Date formula proposed as a method to solve the dating problem. The importance of frontiers in initiating social and technological change has held the attention of scholars in many fields since Turner's work late last century.l In Indian Ocean 1983 Birmingham and Jeans suggested that frontier research could become a major focus for Australian historical archaeologists. 2 Such a shift in research has not occurred. Work stimulated by their paper concentrated on testing the model formulated by them, the Swiss Family Robinson model, against the historical record of colonisation in parts of Australia. Attempts to test it against the archaeological record are non existent. This indicates that there is a problem in applying frontier theory to the archaeological record in Australia. A survey of Western Australian local histories suggests ~ that this problem may be the rapid pace of change on WESTERN AUSTRALIA Australian frontiers. 3 They indicate that in Western Australia the frontier stage at most places passed in less ~ than thirty years. Further, to answer some questions ....... ....fOOkm posed by some frontier models archaeological time _ frames may need to be less than a decade.

  • Study of Groundwater-Related Aboriginal Cultural Values on the Gnangara Mound, Western Australia
    STUDY OF GROUNDWATER-RELATED ABORIGINAL CULTURAL VALUES ON THE GNANGARA MOUND, WESTERN AUSTRALIA for DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT by Dr Edward McDonald PhD. Bryn Coldrick, B.A. (Hons), M.A. and Linda Villiers, B.A. (Hons), M.A. October 2005 __________________________________________________________________________________ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Estill and Associates Pty Ltd was commissioned by the Department of Environment to conduct a study into Aboriginal cultural values associated with groundwater-related environmental features and processes on the Gnangara Mound in Perth’s northern metropolitan region. The information contained in this report is intended to assist the Department in determining the Social Water Requirements (SWRs) which are to be incorporated into a Sub-Regional Management Plan for use in the water allocation decision-making process. The study involved a detailed literature review, a comprehensive examination of sites listed on the Register of Aboriginal Sites and consultation with key Aboriginal stakeholders both on and off country. The study included exploring the key Aboriginal cultural values associated with groundwater-related environmental features and processes; identifying places of cultural heritage interest associated with these values; highlighting the most significant places based on available information; discussing the potential impact on cultural values brought on by declining groundwater levels; and identifying ways in which Aboriginal people can become involved in the long-term management of groundwater resources on the Gnangara Mound. The study found that the Aboriginal people of the South West (known collectively as the Nyungar people) base much of their culture, identity and spirituality on their close association with groundwater. The Nyungars share these associations with Aboriginal groups throughout the Australian continent.

  • March 2014 Perth CBD Office Market Overview
    RESEARCH March 2014 Perth CBD Office Market Overview HIGHLIGHTS • The effects of a soft Perth CBD leasing market during 2013 have materialised with negative net absorption of 46,442m2 recorded for the twelve months to January 2014. As a result, vacancy rates rose to a three year high of 9.0% (from 6.9% in July 2013) which was most pronounced in A-grade assets following a tenant contraction driven vacancy rise to 10.2% (from 6.3% in July 2013). • Prime grade net incentive levels have risen to circa 20% which is expected to favour tenant migration to higher quality premises. The impact of rising incentives has seen prime net effective rents decline 19.2% in the 12 months to January 2014. While overall tenant demand has declined, demand for Premium grade space is resilient, being the only building grade to record positive absorption for the six months to January 2014. • There were eight major office transactions within the Perth CBD, totalling $1.34 billion during 2013. Prime Grade core market yields ranged from 7.00% to 8.50%, whilst secondary-grade properties are yielding an average range of 8.50% to 10.00%.
