Mactaggarts Woolstore is a heritage-listed wool warehouse at 53 Vernon Terrace, Teneriffe, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was built in 1926 by Stuart Brothers (Sydney). It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.[1]
The Mactaggart's Woolstore was built in 1926 for the New Zealand Loan and Mercantile Agency Company, one of some sixteen woolstores erected in the first half of the twentieth century along the Brisbane River at Teneriffe. From the mid 1960s the woolstores and their associated wharves were in decline, and many of the woolstores were sold as development sites.[1]
