The Mansions, Brisbane

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Mansions is a heritage listed set of six three-storied terrace houses located on the corner of George Street and Margaret Street, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia ^[1]^[2]. They were built during the Victorian era in 1889 for residential use. An early resident of "The Mansions" was Dr. Lillian Cooper, who was Queensland's first female doctor and Australia's first female surgeon.

In 2002, "The Mansions" were featured in a television advertisement for the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service, which starred Steve Irwin ^[3].
