The Jolimont Centre is a commercial building in Canberra , Australia. It is also the city's long-distance coach station.
History [ edit ]
In the late 1920s, a timber building named the Jolimont Building was erected in Civic , on a block bounded by Northbourne Avenue , Alinga, Moore, and Rudd Streets. The building had originally been manufactured in England in 1899 for use at Jolimont railway station in Melbourne .[1]
In 1978, approval was granted for the construction of a hotel complex and a long-distance coach terminal.[2] Lend Lease Development began work on a six-storey commercial and office complex, which was initially tenanted by the Department of Resources and Energy , the Canberra Tourist Bureau, Prime Television , Trans Australia Airlines , and radio station 2CA .[1] [3] [4]
During the construction phase, the building was sold to AMP .[5] General Post Office was also built.[6] Ansett Pioneer and Greyhound using the coach terminal for services to Adelaide , Melbourne and Sydney .[7] [8] CountryLink , Deluxe Coachlines , McCafferty's , Murrays , Transborder Express , Trans City and V/Line began using the terminal.[9] [10] [11] [12]
The 1993 Jolimont Centre siege saw the centre rammed by a vehicle rigged with petrol and gas canisters.[13] [14] [15] Novotel hotel.[16]
