AIR RAID SHELTER TENERIFFE
FERRY TERMINAL
COMMERCIAL ROAD, TENERIFFE,
BRISBANE, QLD,
DURING WWII
There were many Air Raid Shelters built around Brisbane during WW2. It is generally unknown by most Brisbane people that many of them are still partially standing and used as bus shelters or shade shelters in parks around Brisbane. Many people stand under them or drive past them not realising their original use during WW2.
One of the many air raid shelters remaining in Brisbane is the "bus stop" type air raid shelter located at the Teneriffe Ferry Terminal at the end of Commercial Road, Teneriffe, Brisbane, Queensland. Another similar one is located at the corner of Enoggera Road and Bans Street, Newmarket.
