| Former Kingston post office THE ACT Heritage Council have decided to provisionally register the former Kingston post office, for the second time. |
On April 7, 2022, the post office was provisionally registered for the first time, but due to the review and subsequent dismissal of the previous Heritage Council, the previous decision lapsed without a final registration decision being made.
As of August 15, the post office has been re-registered, with the ACT Heritage Council saying it is satisfied on reasonable grounds that it is likely to have heritage significance.
In a statement for heritage significance, the former Kingston post office is described as “significant for its strong associations with the post-World War II development of Canberra”.
The Heritage Council is inviting written comments – due within the next four weeks – about the registration, and say they have been able to consider submissions received during the public consultation of the 2022 decision.
