Buchanan's Hotel

Queensland, Australia

Buchanan's Hotel (nicknamed "Buchs") was a hotel on Sturt Street located in the CBD of Townsville, Queensland, Australia. The three-storey structure, with an ornate three storey cast iron verandah, was completed in 1903. It was used as a hotel up to World War II, and then during the war housed American officers. It caught fire and was largely destroyed in 1982.
