Heritage Protection for Griffith Flats

Heritage Protection for Griffith Flats

The GNCA welcomes the Griffith Flats being given heritage protection (NI2024-71).  The 1948 flats reflect Garden City planning. They are a well-preserved example of Canberra’s medium density government housing.

The 48 two bedroom flats are bounded by Canberra Avenue, Eyre Street, Oxley Street and Dawes Street.  (Refer map below.) Like the Kingston Post Office, that has also been protected (NI 2023-492), the Flats are part of our legacy from the past and the valued built and arboreal fabric of our community.
