City courts tenants for Old Boys School

Jessica NicoFremantle Gazette

A commercial lease is available for the entire 161-year-old former school building’s 1100sq m space or for part of it, which would give the City the ability to sublet.

City of Fremantle economic development and marketing manager Tom Griffiths said the rent was non-negotiable and was based on an independent market valuation of $40,000 a year.

“It’s a fantastic heritage building located right in the middle of the up-and-coming east end of Fremantle, so it’s very important we attract a tenant or tenants that will add to this area’s transformation,” he said.

“With this in mind, we’ve developed comprehensive guidelines to ensure the new use integrates well with the character of the local precinct, provides a community benefit and has a positive impact on the local economy.
