Fred Murray office space available for lease
Tender submissions
Council is now seeking tender submissions from businesses ready to contribute to shaping the next chapter of Nambour’s CBD.
Commercial, economic and social outcomes will be considered and preference will be given to a single tenant for the entire building or whole-floor tenancies.
While there had been community suggestions to repurpose the Fred Murray building for emergency and/or transitional accommodation, Council and the Queensland Government have clarified that conversion to residential uses is not viable.
Significant investment would be required to meet building compliance standards for such a transformation.
Council will continue to retain and operate the nearby Eddie De Vere building as a hub for Council staff, customer service counter, Local Disaster Coordination Centre and a venue for community use through the foyer and the Namba Meeting Place.
This leasing opportunity aligns with a broader effort to revitalise Nambour as a creative, connected and economically vibrant centre.
The CBD is currently undergoing a major facelift, including new pedestrian crossings, improved walkability and enhanced public spaces.
