History

From the 1930s in East Perth and Perth, development pressure was seen along the river when a trend towards inner-city flat development gained momentum. By the 1950s, southern and East Perth continued as a desirable and popular place for high-density, inner-city residences.
The Langley Park flats, built along Terrace Road to cater to young office workers, are a prime example of the post-war investment in flat construction that occurred after the lifting of wartime housing controls. There was a total of 21 blocks of flats in Goderich, Forrest and Hill Streets, Burt Way and Terrace Road by the early to mid-fifties.
The Metropolitan Water Supply Survey plan dated 1954 shows that the flats at Nos. 114 and 126 were constructed by then, and in between them was vacant land. Aerial photos show that by 1965 the flats at Nos. 118, 120, 122 and 124 had also been built.
