The Salisbury and Rupert Street Heritage Area is of cultural heritage significance within the City of Subiaco for the following reasons: • The defined period and nature of development in the area has resulted in a complementary palette of materials and design idioms, enlivened by a diversity of individual details. The majority of the properties have retained a medium to high level of authenticity, and collectively they provide a good representative collection of middle-class Subiaco houses dating from the early twentieth century (extending from c.1899-1923). • Together with the adjacent Chester Estate, the area provides a comprehensive collection of places that epitomize the physical and traditional social character of what is now known as the City of Subiaco’s Triangle Precinct. As part of this larger collection of places the area makes an important contribution to the sense of place and local identity of Subiaco. • The history of the houses in the area helps to demonstrate the original settlement of this part of Subiaco as a solid middle class area, in which the family residences of more senior white-collar workers existed side by side with the smaller, but still well-built, houses of more junior white-collar workers, retail employees and skilled tradespeople. • The development of several houses by known builder/developers of the period helps to illustrate the important role of speculative developers in the rapid residential development of Subiaco in the early twentieth century. • The history of the subdivision and early sale of residential lots in the area helps to illustrate the status of Western Australia as a place of opportunity during the gold rush era of the late nineteenth century – attracting significant interest and investment from the eastern states.
