The area was owned by Captain William Owston, and then his stepson, Frederick Jones. Jones served with the Fremantle Council for many years. On the subdivision of the property in 1891, family names were given to the streets. Louisa was the daughter of Frederick and Emma Jones. Louisa Street was one of the first in this area of South Fremantle to be developed.
The Fremantle Sailing Club built their boathouse and club rooms here c. 1920. A photograph dated 1979 shows a timber framed and corrugated iron building, clad with weatherboard and fibrous sheeting extending a long way down Louisa Street with timber frame windows; two sets of timber (ledge and brace?) double doors to Marine Terrace and another entrance sheltered by a portico on Louisa Street.
The land had been cleared by the early 1980s and was subsequently subdivided into three separate lots. In 2006, Council received an application to build a two storey house at 2A Louisa Street.
The Fremantle Sailing Club built new clubrooms and mooring pens at Fremantle Boat Harbour in the 1980s.
