Brookman & Moir Streets Development Guidelines

What are we doing?

The Brookman and Moir Streets area is a place of special significance. It is made up of two streets in Perth comprising 58 semi-detached residences and one detached residence in two variants of the Federation Queen Anne style. The dwellings were constructed of limestone and brick with corrugated iron roofs in 1897‑98, during the Western Australian Gold Boom period for the Colonial Finance Corporation.

The design guidelines were prepared to protect and enhance this group of heritage listed properties.

The current design guidelines need to be reviewed and reformed so that they can be clearly implemented to deliver the objectives.

What do we need?

The purpose of this consultation is to understand the community sentiment regarding the conservation of the dwellings and also to understand the most important elements of the streetscape.

You can access the current design guidelines here.
