Properties, Facilities & Development

Creative Quarter

Creative Quarter

  • 2019 Completed

The Creative Quarter precinct is located at the southern terminus of the Sir Charles Court Promenade, adjacent to key centres for learning in the arts, humanities and engineering disciplines. The redevelopment of this area will provide new facilities, amenities and opportunities for activation at all times of the day, creating a vibrant space where staff, students and visitors to campus can relax, enjoy and collaborate - a place to linger for longer.

The redevelopment will book-end the recently completed Wesfarmers Court refurbishment at the northern end of campus, and also provide much-needed facilities encouraging cycling as a convenient and sustainable mode of transport to and from the Perth campus.
