Christ Church in Wongarra Street Bundaberg

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The Bundaberg district was explored by Europeans searching for timber in the 1850s and 1860s and developed from the 1870s onwards as one of Australia's major sugar-producing areas. The Bunda Aborigines gave the city the first part of its name, while the second part "Berg" (German for 'mountain') points to the preponderance of early German settlers. The first Anglican Church in Bundaberg was built in Quay Street in 1876. The building was moved to Woongarra Street, near the present site, in 1899. The present brick church, in English gothic style with a prominent bell tower and spire, was built in 1926 and dedicated in February 1927.1 Plans for the building had been drawn up in the 1890s by the architect, J. H. Buckeridge (1857-1934), a pupil of J. L. Pearson, who was the Diocesan Architect of the Anglican Diocese of Brisbane between 1887 and 1902. Source: www.ohta.org.au/organs/organs/BundabergAng.html

  • State Library of Queensland said:
    We're looking for people to help us name the buildings in this photograph. Comments and tags appreciated.
  • Simon Miller said:
    The large building in the top left corner with the arches is certainly All Hallows School in Ivory Street. I fear most of the other buildings have been demolished.
  • State Library of Queensland said:
    Simon Miller As we thought. The landscape has changed significantly since the photograph was taken, for certain.

    The Story Bridge The Story Bridge, built between 1935 and 1940, is one of the most iconic structures in Brisbane. Today, The Story Bridge is known for its LED lighting displays that can be seen along the length of the Brisbane River, and as the home of the Brisbane bridge climb. To commemorate this important Queensland landmark, the State Library has collected a number of materials documenting the development of the Story Bridge. We invite you to explore these resources on the construction and history of the Story Bridge here. Source: www.slq.qld.gov.au/discover/exhibitions/hornibrook/story-...

    The bridge has had various names, including Brisbane River Bridge, Kangaroo Point Bridge, King George V Silver Jubilee Bridge, King George V Memorial Bridge (after the king’s death) or simply Jubilee Bridge. However, when it was opened on 6 July 1940 by Sir Leslie Orme Wilson, Governor of Queensland it was named Story Bridge in honor of John Douglas Story, the Public Service Commissioner and member of the Bridge Board. It was entered on the Queensland State Heritage Register on 21 October 1992. Source; kangaroopointhistory.com.au/the-river/thestory-bridge/
