Introducing the Osmaston building. Meticulously renovated to reinstate its former charm, preserving and highlighting the original Art Deco Features. This building today stands as a proud testament to building craftsmanship, both old and new, and is the first of its kind in New Farm.
Osmaston was constructed in the 1930s by Albert George Silvester, a former photographer, in the Art Deco style representing luxury, glamour, and exuberance with a classic timeless elegance.
The building has a unique history. In 1942 at the height of World War II, the American Navy selected Brisbane as a strategic base to support a major submarine offensive in the Pacific. In April of that year the first American submarines arrived at Capricorn Wharf on Macquarie Street and all 6 apartments in Osmaston were leased by the US Navy to accommodate its Officers until March 1945. Following the War, Osmaston remained as flats and underwent numerous alterations.
