Dragon Tree Soak Nature Reserve

Dragon Tree Soak Nature Reserve is located in the Great Sandy Desert in the southern part of the Kimberley region of Western Australia. It covers an area of around 180 square kilometres (69 sq mi) and is 210 kilometres (130 mi) east of the Great Northern Highway. Dragon Tree Soak is a swamp believed to be a relic of the riverine vegetation found along the Mandora Palaeoriver during its partial rejuvenation by the wetter climates of the early to mid Holocene Epoch. It is used by birds from the surrounding hummock grasslands but also has species generally associated with scrub or tree-lined watercourses elsewhere. Species not recorded elsewhere in the region but present in the Typha beds were the Clamorous Reed-Warbler and the Australian crake. It is a wetland of significance, described as: Dragon Tree Soak is a swamp with bullrush Typha domingensis and dragon tree Sesbania formosa. It includes a freshwater spring, a permanent freshwater marsh and peatland. It has an area of 5 ha (main water area: 1 ha). It forms an oasis supporting plants and animals that are absent or scarce elsewhere in the desert. Wild camel damage has been reported as extensive, and programmes to reduce their effect on the reserve have been conducted. Assessability It is a reserve that contains old dry lake beds, and is well away from named tracks. It is accessible by driving east following the track at 19°41'54.6"S 121°14'19.9"E, near Eighty Mile Beach, until 20°03'52.9"S 123°18'37.0"E, then heading north by 37 km. Flying by helicopter from Broome or Port Hedland is also possible. Notes
Elizabeth Quay bus station

Elizabeth Quay bus station, formerly the Esplanade Busport, is a Transperth bus station, located at the southern edge of the Perth CBD in Western Australia, next to the Perth Convention Exhibition Centre and Elizabeth Quay railway station. It has 35 stands and is served by 55 Transperth routes operated by Path Transit, Swan Transit and Transdev WA. It is also served by South West Coach Lines services. Description Elizabeth Quay bus station is located west of Elizabeth Quay railway station, adjacent to Mounts Bay Road, the Perth Convention Exhibition Centre, and the Ernst & Young Building. There are bus access points to the north-west (Mounts Bay Road and Mills Street), north (Mounts Bay Road westbound, entry only), and south-east (Kwinana Freeway ramps and William Street). The passenger entrances are at the north and south ends of the upper level concourse, and there are multiple pedestrian bridges connecting the bus station to the buildings north of Mounts Bay Road. The concourse sits above five ground-level platforms, which are labelled A to E. Each platform has seven stands, identified by the platform letter and a digit (1 to 7). Buses servicing the northernmost Platform A run west to east along the platform (stand A1 to stand A7), while buses for the other platforms travel from east to west (stands 7 to 1 for each platform). History A bus station on The Esplanade, between Barrack Street and William Street, was suggested in 1974 by the Perth Central Design Co-ordinating Committee, to complement the recently-opened Wellington Street bus station on the CBD's northern side. Elizabeth Quay bus station was opened as City Busport on 30 November 1991 by Premier Carmen Lawrence. It was renamed Esplanade Busport in September 2004. On 31 January 2016, Esplanade Busport and Esplanade railway station were renamed to Elizabeth Quay bus station and Elizabeth Quay railway station. The renaming was controversial; the estimated cost was $700,000, at a time when the state government was running a significant budget deficit. In September 2024, Elizabeth Quay bus station became the first station on the Transperth network to have electric bus charging infrastructure installed. Bus routes Many bus services start and terminate at the Elizabeth Quay Bus Station: Platform A Platform B Platform C Platform D (St George Tce Service Bound) Platform E (St George Tce Service Bound) Accidents and incidents On 15 July 2015, a gas-fuelled Mercedes-Benz OC 500 LE caught fire whilst stationary in the 4th lane (more commonly known as lane D). During the fire, the building above the Busport was evacuated as a safety precaution. No-one was injured and it was said that the fire was caused by a coolant leak. The bus cost an estimated $750,000 and was completely destroyed in the fire. Gallery References External links Media related to Elizabeth Quay Bus Station at Wikimedia Commons
Eurardy Reserve

Eurardy Reserve is a 30,050-hectare (74,300-acre) nature reserve in Western Australia. It is 145 kilometres (90 mi) north of Geraldton, 275 kilometres (171 mi) south of Carnarvon and 530 kilometres (330 mi) north of Perth. It lies on the northern edge of the South West Botanical Province, adjoining Kalbarri National Park, and is owned and managed by Bush Heritage Australia (BHA), by which it was purchased in 2005. Landscape and vegetation The reserve has a flat relief supporting vegetation associations of high conservation value, including Mallalie (Eucalyptus eudesmoides, bowgada and jam scrub with York gum and red mallee woodlands. It is well known for its display of spring wildflowers. Fauna Mammals historically present on the property include the numbat, bilby, burrowing bettong, western barred bandicoot and chuditch. Although these became locally extinct, recent reintroductions into Kalbarri National Park may herald a return to the reserve. Other animals known to be present include spinifex hopping mouse, thorny devil, fat-tailed and hairy-footed dunnarts, eastern grey kangaroo, emu and euro.

Fremantle Customs House

The Old Customs House is a building in Fremantle, Western Australia, that was built in 1908 to house the main branch of the Customs Department of Western Australia. It is one of only a handful of extant Customs Houses in the state; others are in Albany, Broome, Cossack, and Geraldton. History It was built on the corner of Cliff and Phillimore streets on the site of the old railway station, a location selected by William Lyne (and recommended by the Fremantle Citizens League). William Hedges also lobbied in support of the location. An earlier idea of renovating the old Post Office building for Customs' use was scrapped. On 18 September 1907, the state government allocated £7,500 (of the total projected cost of £10,000, equivalent to A$1.69 million in 2022) to be spent on construction in the following year. The architectural plans were prepared by the State's Public Works Department under the supervision of the Principal Architect, Hillson Beasley. The building construction was undertaken by a local firm, Ashman and Warner, under the supervision of Mr Sefton of the Public Works Department. The two storey building is constructed of brick on a base of Cottesloe limestone. The heavily moulded cornices and facings were constructed from Donnybrook stone, which was chosen in preference (due to lower cost, and better weather resistance) to Sydney freestone. Western Australian timbers were also used. The Postmaster-General decided not to open a telegraph office in the new building, because one already existed close by. Current use In 1986 the building was used to house the Fremantle Arts Foundation (FAF), with the creation of eight artist's studios. The FAF was established by the State Government to provide a cultural component to 1987 America's Cup Defence. The building was subsequently purchased by the State and managed by the Foundation. In 1992 FAF changed its name to the Artists Foundation of Western Australia Ltd (AFWA), providing support for visual artists through statewide delivery of professional development, support and advocacy services. In 2004 AFWA was rebranded and now trades as Artsource. The building housed the WA Circus School until 2017, and currently accommodates 24 artist's studios. Heritage value The building was classified by the National Trust of Australia (WA) on 28 October 1974 and was placed on the Register of the National Estate on 21 March 1978. The building was formally listed on the State Register of Heritage Places by the Heritage Council of Western Australia on 23 April 1999. It is also listed on the City of Fremantle's municipal heritage list. See also List of heritage places in Fremantle References

Langley Park, Perth

Langley Park is an open space in the central business district of Perth, Western Australia. Running alongside Riverside Drive, it is grassed, rectangular in shape and has approximate dimensions 900 by 100 metres (2,950 ft × 330 ft). It was created by reclaiming land from the adjacent Swan River between 1921 and 1935, to provide open space near the city. As a pioneer of civil aviation in Western Australia, Major Norman Brearley used the park as an airstrip in the 1920s. That tradition continues with "fly-ins", where small aircraft land in the park. In 2003, to celebrate 100 years of powered flight, 10 aircraft – one representing each decade of the 20th century – landed. Aircraft have also used the park to perform emergency landings. In 1997 a Tiger Moth TMK had an engine failure and put down in the park. While not an official airfield, Langley Park makes Perth a place where fixed-wing aircraft can land in proximity to the central business district. Modern usage For many years, Langley Park's location made it a popular place to view the annual City of Perth Skyworks fireworks show on Australia Day, which were held over the river. After Skyworks' retirement in 2022, Langley Park has continued to host a smaller scale fireworks display and drone show as a replacement for the event. The Telstra Rally Australia World Rally Championship held events at the park for 11 years from 1992 to 2002, and once more in 2005. During November 2006, 2007 and 2008, the final stage of the Red Bull Air Race World Series was held over the Swan River and Perth Water, using Langley Park as the airfield. Cirque du Soleil has used the park many times for its shows whenever a big top touring production visits Australia. Shows performed at Langley Park have included Saltimbanco, Alegria, Quidam, Dralion, and Ovo. On 30 September 2018, the park was the site of the West Coast Eagles homecoming celebrations after winning the 2018 AFL Grand Final. In 2019, Langley Park hosted the 2019 WMF World Cup.

McDonald Smith Building

The McDonald Smith Building is a heritage building in the port city of Fremantle, Western Australia. The building dates from the gold rush boom period in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and is of historic significance.

ТЕС Ньюмен

ТЕС Ньюмен — теплова електростанція на північному заході Австралії. У 1996 році на майданчику станції ввели в дію чотири встановлені на роботу у відкритому циклі газові турбіни загальною номінальною потужністю 178 МВт — три від General Electric типу Frame 6B потужністю по 42 МВт та одну від Rolls Royce типу Trent 60 з показником 52 МВт. Втім, в умовах спекотного клімату Західної Австралії фактична потужність газотурбінної черги при температурі 32 градуси становить лише 134 МВт. У 2022-му ТЕС доповнили 14 генераторними установками на основі двигунів внутрішнього згоряння Jenbacher J624 потужністю по 4,4 МВт. Як паливо використовують природний газ, що надходить через відгалуження завдовжки 47 км від трубопроводу Ярралула – Есперанс. Для видалення продуктів згоряння кожна турбіна General Electric має димар заввишки 7 метрів, тоді як турбіна Trent отримала димар висотою 25 метрів. Кожна генераторна установка Jenbacher має димар заввишки 14 метрів. Видача продукції відбувається під напругою 66 кВ та 220 кВ (ЛЕП 220 завдовжки 121 км прокладена до залізного рудника Рой-Гілл). Також можливо відзначити, що у 2018-му ТЕС Ньюмен отримала літієву батарею, здатну видавати потужність 35 МВт. Примітки
Princess Theatre (Fremantle)

The Princess Theatre, located at 29–33 Market Street, Fremantle, Australia, was built in 1912. It closed in 1969 and is now used for offices and retail businesses. History The theatre was built on the site of an old warehouse that was demolished. It was purpose built in 1912 for Captain Frank Biddles (1851–1932), a master pearler from Broome, who had semi-retired to Fremantle in 1902. It was designed by a local architect, John McNeece, and built by Mr C. Moore, at a cost of £A 22,000, equivalent to A$3 million in 2022. The theatre, with a seating capacity of 1,850, was opened on 21 December 1912 by the Mayor of Fremantle, Frederick James McLaren. The opening night included a screening of The French Spy and vaudeville performances by Miss Elsie McGuire. Until 1914 the theatre was managed by Thomas Coombe. Coombe then lost contact with the building as the management changed as a new cinema opened but he returned in 1917 to take over the business. In 1915, Captain Biddles made the basement of the Princess Theatre available to provide amenities for army and naval personnel. This was the early beginnings of the RSA, later to become known as the Returned and Services League of Australia (RSL). A more permanent structure was built the following year nearby. The building was extensively reconstructed in 1941 and the auditorium lost its original 1912 décor. On 26 June 1969, the Princess Theatre closed, and the building was converted to commercial uses. The building was classified by the National Trust of Australia in May 1974 and placed on the Register of National Estate in March 1978. As of 2014, the ground floor is occupied by Kakulas Sister and a hairdressing salon. The upper floors are occupied by various small businesses including architecture firms PardoeDesign and Harris Design Group, developers Yolk, and short term creative co-working studio FSpace. The basement is not used as it is below sea level and flooded unless pumped out. See also List of heritage places in Fremantle References Further reading
