Introduction 1.1 Purpose This Heritage Impact Statement (HIS) has been prepared to form part of a Development Application to the West Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) for a new four storey office building located at No.1, 3 and 5 Harvest Terrace, West Perth. The proposal has been prepared as a result of a successful response to the State Government’s ‘Office Accommodation Parliamentary Precinct; Request for Expressions of Interest’. The proposal is located opposite Parliament House to the east and directly adjacent Harvest House to the north. Both places are of cultural heritage significance with Parliament House listed as a permanent entry on the State Register of Heritage Places and Harvest House on the Heritage Council’s assessment program, currently progressing towards registration. Both places are also included on the City of Perth’s Heritage List compiled under the City’s Town Planning Scheme No.2. The proposal also includes the demolition of two properties located at No.1 and 5 Harvest Terrace; neither of these hold any statutory heritage listing. The proposal is also located within the Parliament House Precinct, which contains a number of historic government buildings and grounds that include Parliament House, Dumas House, former Hale School and the Old Observatory. This civic precinct does not have any heritage listing but is nevertheless important in assessing the heritage impact of the proposal due to its prominent and elevated location characterised by these landmark heritage buildings set within open grounds that collectively form a significant cultural landscape. As a consequence of the overall heritage context, this HIS will describe and evaluate the likely impact of the proposal on the following places: • Parliament House & Grounds • Harvest House (No.7 Harvest Terrace) • Parliament House Precinct 1.2 References The HIS has been prepared in accordance with the requirements set out of in the ‘Heritage Impact Statement - A Guide’, published by the Heritage Council Western Australia. The assessment has been made against the following architectural drawings prepared by Bolig Design Group, dated August and November 2020: 4 Dar Studio | Architecture + Heritage • SK01 revA | Basement and Ground Floor Plan • SK02 | Level 1 and 2 Floor Plan • SK03 | Level 3 Floor Plan and Roof Plan • SK04 revB | Elevations • SK05 revB | Sections • SK06 | Shadow Diagram • SK07 | Plan Shadow Diagram • SK08 | Plot Ratio • SK09 | Landscaping Area - Ground Floor Plan • SK10 | Contextual Plan • SK11 | Building Setbacks Plan • SK12 | Demolition Plan • SK13 | Streetscapes • Image 01 rev3 | Artist’s impression View 01 • Image 02 rev3 | Artist’s impression View 02 • Image 03 rev3 | Artist’s impression View 03 Reference has also been made to the following landscape drawings prepared by Plan E, dated July 2020: • C1.101, revC | Landscape Concept Plan • C3.101, revB | Planting Palette - Ground • C3.102, revB | Planting Palette - Level 1 Reference has also been made to the following: • Heritage Council of Western Australia, Register of Heritage Places: Register Entry and Assessment Documentation for Parliament House & Grounds, ref: P2239, 05 November 2020. • Heritage Council of Western Australia, Register of Heritage Places: Draft Register Entry and Assessment Documentation for Harvest House, ref: P3925, 27 November 2020. • City of Perth, Heritage Place Record Detail for Harvest House, June 2001. • City of Perth, Precinct Plan No.10 West Perth, 11 April 2017 • Parliament House Planning Precinct Policy, Planning Bulletin July 1983. • Site visit undertaken on 04 November 2020 to assess overall heritage context. 1.3 Subject Site Located in West Perth, the subject site is within the City of Perth, approximately 1km west of the Perth CBD. The site is bound by existing commercial development to the north and west, Harvest Terrace to the east and Parliament Place to the south. The grounds of the Parliament of Western Australia are Heritage Impact Statement | Harvest Terrace, West Perth | December 2020 5 located immediately east and Harvest House (No.7 Harvest Terrace) to the north. There are currently two single storey buildings located on the site at No.1 and No.5 Harvest Terrace. The property at No.3 Harvest Terrace has been demolished and cleared creating a vacant lot. The subject site rises up in a southwards direction along Harvest Terrace and remains relatively flat along Parliament Place. The surrounding built-up urban landscape is a varied mix of low-rise commercial and office buildings in the vicinity of Hay Street, and multi-storey residential developments on Malcolm Street. The hillside to the south of Parliament Place is predominantly open space which includes the reserve on which Dumas House, the Old Observatory and the former Hale School buildings are located. As part of the City of Perth’s Planning Scheme No.2, the site is included within Precinct Plan No.10 West Perth, which also includes a Metropolitan Region Scheme Clause 32 area that defines the spatial boundaries of Parliament House Precinct. The site is located within the inner precinct boundary of this area that was established in order to protect the prominence of Parliament Hill and its relationship to the city centre, as well as the need to control the aesthetic aspect of development in the vicinity of Parliament House. Refer to figure 1 for location plan, figure 2 for a site plan showing the proposal in relation to its heritage context, and figure 3 for location within the boundaries of the Parliament House Precinct.

No.1 and No.5 Harvest Terrace Both these places have no statutory or non-statutory heritage listing. As a precursor to this development they were assessed by the Heritage Council of Western Australia under the Government Heritage Property Disposal Process (GHPDP). This involved a preliminary review of both places to ascertain their cultural heritage significance through historical research and analysis.

    Welcome to the Icons of Influence trail When John Septimus Roe first laid out the city of Perth in 1829, he envisioned a powerful city at the centre of a strong, progressive economy. St Georges Terrace was the focus of this design, a broad avenue running parallel to the shores of the majestic Swan River. Pre-eminent early settlers built their residences along the Terrace and many significant civic buildings were also erected here. St Georges Terrace continues its central role as the city’s Icons of powerhouse today. Follow this trail to investigate the history of the city through its iconic places of influence.

  • Barracks Arch Open House and History
    THE ARCHIES! Open House Perth is a free, two-day festival that celebrates the best of architecture, design and the built environment in Perth and its surrounds. It gives visitors unprecedented, behind-the-scenes access to Perth’s best places and spaces. The Open House concept was founded in London in 1992 with the aim of fostering a better understanding of architecture outside the architecture profession – it now spans the globe. In association with The Heritage Council and the City of Perth the Barracks Arch was open to small groups over the weekend of 16 and 17 November. The Enrolled Pensioner Guard SIG was on hand to provide information and the City of Perth graciously distributed brochures about our work - due to safety reasons, small groups only could tour and this meant only about 200 people could make a booking to climb the Arch. Then and now: An intrepid band of your SIG representatives climbed the Arch to reacquaint themselves (some for the first time) with the Barracks Arch: 1 Thanks to the City of Perth and in particular to Rachael O’Toole far right above for all the work in ensuring the opening of the Arch went smoothly. The history of the Arch has been both interesting and controversial. The picture left is the beginning demolition of the Pensioners Barracks in 1966. Demolition did not come without opposition - an announcement of these plans created public outcry and a Barracks Defence Council emerged in 1961. From 1900-1904, the Arch buildings were converted into office spaces. Previous tenants were relocated and the Public Works Department (PWD) moved in.
