Football has been played at Shenton Park Lake, and then at Mueller Park since 1908. A new pavilion was built in 1923. The gates were built to commemorate the Jubilee of King George V in 1935. The WANFL had its headquarters at the oval from 1936. The gates served as the main entrance until the construction of new stands in the late 1980s. For more detail refer to HCWA's Assessment Documentation of Places for Entry in the Register of Heritage Places. North Subiaco began to develop as an area for residential and for the provision of community facilities from the early 1900s. The opening of the railway line established Subiaco as an area within close proximity to Perth for investors and as a place for people to settle. With sales by Real estate release common, land near the railway platform was the first to be sold. North of Subiaco Road was released as 'Subiaco Estate' in 1895 and south of Roberts Road (formally Mueller Road) was released in 1896. People settled along either side of the railway line, as the more affordable prices made the land accessible to workers. Recreational facilities with the Municipal Gardens and Subiaco Oval being established also played an important role in attracting residents to the new area. Subiaco became known as the home of hospitals, and health care for the young became accessible with the first wing of a Children's Hospital at the corner of Thomas Road and Meuller Road (now Princess Margaret Hospital) opening in 1909.
