Queens Park, Moonee Ponds

Queens Park is a significant park in Moonee Ponds, a northern suburb of Melbourne, Australia. Location Queens Park is located in Moonee Ponds, bound by the following roads: Mount Alexander Road, The Strand, Pascoe Vale Road, Kellaway Avenue. History Following the discovery of gold in Victoria in 1851, travellers heading for the goldfields met here because fresh water was available in the lagoon. On 20 August 1860, the Burke and Wills expedition camped here on their fateful journey to cross Australia. In 1865, Baron Ferdinand Von Mueller (Director of the Melbourne Botanic Gardens) sent 250 specimens to Essendon Borough council, many of which were planted at Queens Park. Description A picturesque cottage is the focal point of the park with its idyllic surrounds and public art pieces. A sealed path surrounds the lake where seats, and picnic tables are provided beneath old established native and exotic trees, with the lake a haven for a variety of birds. A tropical garden, sunken garden and native gardens are some of the many attractions of the park. Concerts and other entertainments are common on weekends. Botanic collection The park boasts an extensive botanic collection, including established Moreton Bay figs, bunya pines and hoop pines. It also features a cycad collection, several native/indigenous gardens, seasonal annual displays, and an Asian-styled garden.

Queens Square, Fremantle

Queens Square, also known as Queen's Square, is a town square in Fremantle, Western Australia. It is located at the intersection of High Street and Parry Street, both of which bisect the square. The square was originally a single space, but was divided into four sections due to the extensions of High and Parry Streets, completed in 1886. Today Queens Square still functions as a public open space for residents of Fremantle. The square is listed in the City of Fremantle’s Municipal Heritage Inventory, reflecting its cultural and historical significance to the area. History The square began as an open space on John Septimus Roe's original town plan of Fremantle, drawn in 1883. In 1866, the Fremantle City Council decided that the extension of High Street should proceed through Queens Square, rather than around it. By 1886 Parry Street had also been extended through the square. In February 1896 the council decided to erect fencing at Queens Square, in order to establish a tree nursery there. Tenders were called for in March, and whilst several were received, all were rejected on the grounds that the proposed fences were too tall. After the fencing was installed, it was criticised for reusing old, aesthetically unappealing fences "instead of neat ornamental fences". In March 1903 the council resolved to install a children's playground in one corner of the square, and in May 1906, drinking fountains. In January 1916 the council decided that the gates were to be left open to allow for public access. Three months later, after incidents of vandalism and destruction of plants, notices were installed warning that "any person stealing, pulling, or destroying flowers will be prosecuted". By 1927, Queens Square was not well known, with many Fremantle residents only learning of it due to a musical concert being held there. The removal of the fences at Queens Square, except for the children's playground, was proposed in August 1931, as replacing the "dilapidated" fences would be expensive. However, it was not decided to remove the fences until October 1932, with a 15–20-centimetre-high (6–8 in) concrete wall replacing them. The children's quarter was to have an additional fence. The work was not carried out until February 1933. Current usage Queens Square is still used as a public open space. It is landscaped with grassed areas and trees, and features paths and seating areas. See also High Street, Fremantle Kings Square, Fremantle References
Queenscliff railway station

Queenscliff railway station was the terminus of the Queenscliff branch line in Victoria, Australia, which left the main Warrnambool line near South Geelong station. The Queenscliff station was opened on 21 May 1879. The current station building was constructed in 1881 and is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register. Between 1886 and 1958, a 3-foot gauge tramway linked the station to Swan Island, to serve the military facilities there. The station was closed to all Victorian Railways services on 6 November 1976. After that, use of the branch line was granted to the Bellarine Peninsula Railway, which re-gauged part of the track to 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm), and commenced tourist train operations from the station to Laker's Siding in May 1979, and to Drysdale not long after. The railway reserve between Drysdale and the Warrnambool line at South Geelong is now used by the Bellarine Rail Trail. References

Queensland Maritime Museum

The Queensland Maritime Museum is located on the southern bank of the Brisbane River just south of the South Bank Parklands and Queensland Cultural Centre precinct of Brisbane, and close to the Goodwill Bridge. The museum was founded in 1971 and contains a two-level exhibition building presenting historic sailing ship models together with merchant shipping from early cargo ships to modern container ships, tankers and cruise liners. It is housed in the building used for the “Pavilion of Promise” at World Expo 88, and the South Brisbane Dry Dock which was built in the 1870s and was 313 feet (95 m) long and 60 feet (18 m) wide. In 1887 the dock was extended to 430 feet (131 m) due to the increasing size of vessels. The museum also includes a library that stocks documents, pictures and other relevant artifacts relating to maritime history. There are several maps that show how early navigators created accurate charts. Information is also provided about some of the 1,500 plus shipwrecks that have occurred along the Queensland coast including the Great Barrier Reef. Vessels The 121 feet (37 m) steam tug Forceful, the only remaining working coal-fired steam tug in Queensland, is berthed at the museum wharf and there are regular sailings down the Brisbane River. It was built in 1925 by Alex Stephen & Son Ltd., Glasgow, Scotland. In 1941 it was chartered by the government for service in the Middle East, but did not sail because Japan entered World War II. She was then requisitioned by the Royal Australian Navy and became known as HMAS Forceful. She was armed with a 20mm Oerlikon Machine Gun and a .303" Vickers machine gun. At present, she is laid up for repairs, estimated to reach around $250,000AUD. HMAS Diamantina, a River Class frigate is in the South Brisbane Dry Dock (Graving Dock), and on board, visitors can view the museum's collection of Australian Naval memorabilia. Another WW2 vessel located at the museum is the Torres Strait type of pearling lugger, "Penguin", which was used by the Americans during WW2, along with the dinghy from General Douglas MacArthur's motor Yacht "Shangri-La". Also visible is the Light Ship CLS4 Carpentaria. Lighthouses exhibition Information is also provided about how lighthouse technology developed from the early oil wick burners to the modern equipment used in the present day. The former Bulwer Island Light, which operated at Bulwer Island at the mouth of the Brisbane River from 1912 to 1983, is on display outside the museum. It is a white, octagonal wooden tower covered with corrugated iron sheets, and the roof of lantern is red. Also displayed are the original lens of Archer Point Light, the pedestal and gearbox of Bustard Head Light, and the lens and apparatus from Cape Don Light in the Northern Territory.

Queensland Tennis Centre

Queensland Tennis Centre, known during its development as the Tennyson Tennis Centre, is a tennis venue in Tennyson, Brisbane, Australia. It is an A$82 million tennis facility opened on 2 January 2009 at the site of the demolished Tennyson Power Station. Since January 2009, the Queensland Tennis Centre has been the host centre for combined men and women's international tennis tournament entitled the Brisbane International, a combination of the former Next Generation Adelaide International event in Adelaide and the Mondial Gold Coast Women's championships. Construction It was designed by internationally recognised stadium designers HOK Sport Venue Event and The Mirvac Group's in-house architectural practice, HPA Pty Ltd and constructed by Mirvac as part of the Tennyson Riverside development. The main court was designed to incorporate a PTFE glass fibre fabric roof. This tensile membrane structure allows diffused light through into the arena reducing the need for artificial lighting. The light weight of the fabric also reduced the amount of steel required and saved on building costs. Brisbane-based company MakMax Australia (Taiyo Membrane Corporation) supplied and installed this roof along with other smaller outdoor structures at this venue. It has twenty-three International Tennis Federation standard tennis courts, including the centre court and two showcase courts, representing all playing surfaces (hardcourt, clay and grass). The centre court Pat Rafter Arena, named in honour of the Australian tennis player Patrick Rafter, has a seating capacity of 5,500 (with an extra temporary seating of 1,500 bringing total capacity to 7,000). Davis and Fed Cup fixtures The Queensland Tennis Centre has hosted several ties in the Davis Cup and Fed Cup representative tournaments.

Queensland Tennis Centre

Il Queensland Tennis Centre (conosciuto precedentemente come Tennyson Tennis Centre) è un impianto sportivo situato nel sobborgo di Tennyson (nella città di Brisbane) nello stato australiano del Queensland. È stato costruito nel sito in cui venne demolita la Tennyson Power Station, una centrale a carbone, ed è stato inaugurato il 2 gennaio 2009. Descrizione Costruzione È stato progettato dall'azienda internazionale HOK Sport Venue Event e dal loro studio di architettura Mirvac, HPA Pty Ltd. Il cortile principale è stato progettato per incorporare un tetto in tessuto di fibra di vetro PTFE. Questa tensostruttura a membrana consente alla luce diffusa di penetrare nell'arena riducendo la necessità di illuminazione artificiale. La leggerezza del tessuto ha anche ridotto la quantità di acciaio necessaria ed ha permesso di risparmiare sui costi di costruzione. La società con sede a Brisbane MakMax Australia (Taiyo Membrane Corporation) ha fornito e installato questo tetto insieme ad altre strutture esterne più piccole presenti nella struttura. Capacità e strutture Il Queensland Tennis Centre dispone di ventitré campi da tennis standard della Federazione Internazionale Tennis, compreso il campo centrale e due campi secondari e comprendono tutte le superfici di gioco (campo in cemento, terra battuta ed erba). Il campo centrale Pat Rafter Arena, così chiamato in onore del tennista australiano Patrick Rafter, ha una capienza di 5.500 posti (con una possibile capienza extra di 1.500 posti che porta la capacità totale a 7.000). Eventi ospitanti Sin dalla sua apertura, a gennaio 2009, il Queensland Tennis Centre ospita il Brisbane International, un torneo di tennis maschile e femminile internazionale, creato in seguito alla chiusura del torneo South Australian Open di Adelaide. Nel 2020 si è svolta anche una parte dei match a squadre nazionali dell'ATP Cup, mentre negli anni ha ospitato alcune sfide delle squadre australiane di Coppa Davis (nel 2010 Australia - Giappone e nel 2017 Australia - Stati Uniti) e di Fed Cup (nel 2014 Germania - Australia e nel 2016 Stati Uniti - Australia). Tra la fine di dicembre 2022 e inizio gennaio 2023 il campo centrale ospiterà alcuni degli incontri tra squadre divise per nazione (che consistono in match di singolare maschile, singolare femminile e doppio misto) della United Cup, torneo nato in sostituzione dell'ATP Cup (per il circuito maschile).
