Lot 495, Town of Katherine – demolition

The Department of Infrastructure, Planning and Logistics (DIPL) is demolishing the old buildings and clearing the site on Lot 495, Town of Katherine.

The site at 29 Giles Street consists of an old community hall, small fuel storage building, outside undercover stage and a nursery shade house.

The site was last used as a community hall in 2020 and has not been used for any purpose since.

An independent structural assessment shows that the main building is beyond economic repair due to the extensive works required for the building to be made suitable to use as a community hall.

To ensure community safety, it will be demolished and cleared. Works will commence April 2024 and are expected to be complete by the end of May 2024.

DIPL will work with local community groups to consider options for the future use of the site.
