History

[edit]

Pinkenba is situated in theYugarabultraditionalAboriginalcountry.[13]TheTurrbalpeople are custodians within the Yugurabul traditional country. The namePinkenbacomes from theTurrbalwordbinkinba,which means "place of land tortoise".[14]

The former suburb ofMeeandahtook its name from the now disusedMeeandah railway stationon thePinkenba railway line,which in turn was named after a corruption of the Greek wordmeander,and referred to Serpentine Creek which flowed through the area, but has subsequently been converted into a drain due to the development ofBrisbane Airport.The name is often thought to be an Aboriginal word.[15][16][17]

Bulwer Island was named afterLord Edward Bulwer-Lyttonwho, as the BritishSecretary of State for the Colonies,separated QueenslandfromNew South Walesin 1859.[7]As the name suggests, it was originally an island in the Brisbane River which became permanently attached to the mainland through a land reclamation project in the 1960s.[18]

Boggy Creek State School opened on 22 February 1875. It was renamed Myrtle State School in 1888. In 1900, it was renamed Pinkenba State School.[19]With student numbers falling to 6 students, the school was mothballed on 31 December 2008 and closed on 31 December 2010.[20][21][22]It was located at 248 Eagle Farm Road, on the corner of Serpentine Road (27°25′13″S153°07′18″E/ 27.4202°S 153.1218°E/-27.4202; 153.1218(Pinkenba State School (former))).[23][24][25]The school's website was archived.[26]

In 1892, the opening of the Queensland Meat Export and Agency Company's meatworks in Pinkenba necessitated the establishment of a town where workers could live close to their work. On 15 October 1892, there was an auction of 40 allotments of land in the new town of Pinkenba. That land was bounded by the present-day streets of McBride Road to the west, Serpentine Road to the north, and Eagle Farm Road to the south-east (27°25′19″S153°07′11″E/ 27.4219°S 153.1197°E/-27.4219; 153.1197(Town of Pinkenba estate)).[27]

A postal receiving office was opened in 1892, becoming Pinkenba Post Office in 1897.[28]In 1969, it was on the north-eastern corner of Hopper Street and McBride Street (27°25′21″S153°07′08″E/ 27.4224°S 153.1190°E/-27.4224; 153.1190(Pinkenba Post Office (1969))).[29]

On Saturday 15 December 1900, auctioneers Isles, Love & Co offered 42 suburban allotments and seven farm sites for sale in the Cluya Road area (27°24′51″S153°07′31″E/ 27.4142°S 153.1254°E/-27.4142; 153.1254(The Port Brisbane Estate)).[30][31][32]

In 1902, a Baptist church opened in Pinkenba.[33][34]Prior to the opening of the church, the Baptist congregation met in Harris's Hall. Astump-capping ceremonyfor the new church was held on Monday 11 November 1901.[35]The church officially opened on New Year's Day, 1 January 1902.[36]

In 1902, a spur line was built from Pinkenba to the wharf, to facilitate the movement of goods. In 1909, a separate railway wharf was constructed.[37]

Pinkenba Wharfwas the point of embarkation for manyWorld War Isoldiers. The Pinkenba & District War Memorial commemorates those from the district who served and died in the war. The memorial was unveiled on 16 August 1919 by theQueensland Governor,SirHamilton Goold-Adams.[38][39]

Pinkenba Presbyterian Church opened in 1915. In 1969, it was on the north-eastern corner of McBride Street and Esker Street (27°25′17″S153°07′09″E/ 27.4213°S 153.1193°E/-27.4213; 153.1193(Pinkenba Presbyterian Church)).[29]It was demolished circa 1980.[40]

Pinkenba Rail Post Office opened at the Pinkenba railway station in mid 1915 and closed in April 1954.[28]

Brisbane's firstsewerage treatmentplant was officially opened at Luggage Point on 23 November 1923. It was Australia's first full-scale sewerage treatment plant, a key component of Brisbane's sewerage scheme which commended in March 1914. It was serviced by an electric tramway.[41][42][43][44][45]

Seaplane S.23,Coriolanus,moored at Pinkenba in 1939

Myrtletown State School opened on 1924 and closed on 19 February 1971. It occupied the northern part of the block bounded by Main Beach Road, School Road (now Lewandowski Drive) and Sandmere Street (27°23′21″S153°08′28″E/ 27.3893°S 153.1412°E/-27.3893; 153.1412(Myrtetown State School (former))).[19][23]

St Matthias' Anglican Church was dedicated on 14 February 1925 by Canonde Witt Batty.It closed circa 1981.[46]It was located on the south-east corner of Hopper Street and McBride Road (27°25′22″S153°07′08″E/ 27.4227°S 153.1189°E/-27.4227; 153.1189(St Matthias' Anglican Church (former))).[47][29]

Myrtletown Methodist Church opened circa 1930. In 1969, it was on the western side of Myrtletown Road (now Main Myrtletown Road) between Rowlingson Street (no longer extant) and Priors Road (approx27°24′20″S153°07′32″E/ 27.4055°S 153.1255°E/-27.4055; 153.1255(Myrtletown Methodist Church (former))).[29]The church is no longer extant; its land is now part of the Brisbane Airport, just south of Qantas Hangar 3's carpark.

Qantasselected Pinkenba for itsflying boatbase in the 1930s. UntilWorld War II,the other flying boat base, atHamilton Reach,was too congested, but the Qantas base eventually moved upstream, providing better access for passengers.[48]

During the war, a Royal Australian Navy Defence Station was established, with the remains of the facility listed on the current Queensland Heritage Register.[37]

On 6 March 1963,Queen Elizabeth IIunveiled a roadside memorial at 315 Tingara Street (corner of Kirra Street,27°25′01″S153°08′09″E/ 27.41690°S 153.13579°E/-27.41690; 153.13579(Discovery of Oil Memorial)).[49][50]It commemorates the discovery of commercial quantities of oil in Australia atMoonie.[51]The location was chosen because it was close to the site of the oil refinery which was to be built to process the oil.[51]However, at the time of the queen's visit,The Canberra Timesdescribed the site as "desolate" and "a smelly, muddy, mosquito-infested swamp", but the site was planted with 12-foot (3.7 m) high palm trees and flower beds and the area sprayed with insecticide in advance of her visit (which are no longer extant).[52]The memorial was designed sculptor Rod Shaw ofNarrabeen,Sydney.Thebas reliefmonement reflects the cooperation between the United States and Australia in the search for oil though the imagery of oil workers handling adrill bitwith flags of the two countries in the background.[53]Although significant oil deposits had been found at Moonie, the 186-mile (299 km) pipeline to Brisbane was not completed until the following year.[51][54]

Bulwer Island Oil Refinerycommenced with a major land reclamation project onBulwer Islandin theBrisbane River,which was then a tidalmangrove swamp.Over 2,000,000 cubic metres (71,000,000 cu ft) of material was dredged from the bed of Brisbane River to connect the island with the northern bank of the river and to create a 90-hectare (220-acre) site (27°24′08″S153°08′30″E/ 27.4021°S 153.1416°E/-27.4021; 153.1416(Bulwer Island oil refinery)) raised to 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) above the high tide level.[18]During its operation, it was the largest oil refinery in Queensland. It was decommissioned in 2015 and now operates as an import terminal.[55]

In 1975, Myrtletown (then an independent suburb) was downgraded to a neighbourhood within Pinkenba.[6]Myrtletown was historically known as a residential and farming locality, though maritime and industrial facilities have developed in recent decades.[citation needed]

As of March 2020,two cruise ship wharves for Brisbane are located there, with differing facilities.Portside WharfatHamiltonwas completed in 2006 and is an international-standard facility for cruise liners, offering restaurants, coffee shops, gift shops, and other facilities. However, due to the height restrictions of theGateway Bridge,and length restriction of 270 metres (890 ft) that far upstream, larger cruise liners must dock further down the river at the more industrial multi-user terminal at thePort of Brisbane.In late 2020, the newBrisbane International Cruise Terminalwas scheduled to open on the northern bank of the Brisbane River at Myrtletown, opposite the port (27°22′52″S153°09′15″E/ 27.3811°S 153.1542°E/-27.3811; 153.1542(Brisbane International Cruise Terminal)), but its opening was delayed because of shut-down of the cruise industry due to theCOVID-19 pandemic.[56]The new cruise terminal is located atLuggage Pointnext to the Luggage Point sewage treatment plant (which has been renamed the Luggage Point Resource Recovery Centre). The new terminal will be able to accommodate the largest cruise vessels in the world. It will be operated by the port but will not be part of the suburb ofPort of Brisbane(which is on the southern bank of the river).[57]
