Shutters Paddington
Hello Paddington,
Did you know*
- Paddington is named after a farm in the borough of Paddington in England and used to be referred to in the 70’s as ‘back of the gaol’ with allotments first sold in 1859. Rosalie, once a separate suburb, has been a locality in Paddington since 1975.
- The Fernberg ‘gentlemen’s estate’ was built in 1865 and became the State Governor’s residence in 1910
- The Barracks was previously the Petrie Terrace Police Depot from 1901 until the mid 80’s, and before that, the Petrie Terrace Gaol from 1860 until 1883. Listed on the QLD Heritage Register in 1999 and sold to a private enterprise in 1987, is now an award winning retail/commercial development.
- Caxton Street houses the Lord Alfred (1870), the Caxton (1884) and Baroona Hall (1883). Since the early 1900s, the Caxton Hotel has been a family owned and operated business while the Gambaros restaurant dynasty opened their fish and chip shop on Caxton Street in 1953. This is why the iconic Seafood and Wine Festival street party is around today.
- Latrobe Terrace housed the Tram sheds from 1915 for forty-seven years until it went up in a fire that also destroyed 20% of Brisbane's trams, fast tracking the replacement of trams with buses.
Established in 1998, Timber Venetians & Shutters Direct remain Brisbane owned, and family operated with Andrew at the helm. We are still local to Paddington even though, after almost 20 years in Latrobe Terrace (next to Bizzell’s Garage), we have relocated to a warehouse in Enoggera.
