Buildings occupied the area as early as 1854 and it was used for a variety of functions including; manufacturing, warehousing, shipping, housing, and electricity generation.

Short Street was closed and all of the site was amalgamated into one allotment, 1 William Street. In 1974, the site was allocated for future government offices. 1 William Street is a site, owned by the Queensland Government, and from 1982 until 2013 it was used as a government car park.
