Our New Office

We have just taken possession of and moved into our new Brisbane offices – and the Locatrix team is thrilled with the new abode. Our new address is in the Brisbane central business district, on in a fully-renovated space on Level 1, 129 Margaret Street – the historic Watson’s Building.

This three-storeyed brick warehouse was constructed in 1887 for the successful Brisbane plumbing firm of Watson Brothers. It was designed by prominent Brisbane architect Richard Gailey, who in the 1880s and 1890s made a substantial contribution to Brisbane’s central business district with his designs for commercial and industrial buildings such as shops, offices, hotels, warehouses and factories.

The precinct is now fast becoming an icon in a revitalised section of the city, partly due to the incredible Brother Espresso – a terrific café on the ground floor (directly below Locatrix) – and partly due to a coincidental gathering of mobile tenants. Mogeneration, who design publication tools for iPad, iPhones and Android devices are located next to us, making this building one of the epicentres of mobile development in Brisbane. We’re also directly opposite QUT’s IT Research Facility.

We’ve just completed a functional furniture fitout, installed our Internet and VoIP services, and moved in – so it now feels like home. Now we need to get the coffee machine. Come visit us sometime!
