The Kingston Powerhouse is a disused power plant in Canberra, the capital of Australia. It is located in the suburb of Kingston, Australian Capital Territory.
It was designed by John Smith Murdoch and constructed from 1913-1915, when the planned city of Canberra came into being. The power station generated electricity until 1957 and is Canberra's oldest public building.[1]
It was later converted and now houses the Canberra Glassworks.
