History

Historical notes:

The Heritage Council Restoration Steering (HC RS) Committee considered the propsect of letting the buildings on the basis of a combined residential/commercial use for a suitable lease period, with the cost of restoration work to be borne by the tenants.

In response to a press advertisement the HC RS Committee reseived 67 expressions of interest in restoring and leasing the terraces, covering a wide variety of uses. Legal action was taken to evict squatters in the buildings. A security fence was erected at the rear of the buildings but a detailed estimate of minor repairs needed could not be made due to difficulties in gaining access due to the squatters (HC, 1982).
