Parliament house built by sir edward lutyens
The current Parliament House is located in Canberra, Australia. Construction for the building began in 1981 and ended in 1988. The old Parliament House was built in 1927.
The new Parliament House was built because Australia's original Parliament House was only ever intended to be a temporary residence for parliament. However, for a variety of reasons, it served as the Federal Parliament building for over 60 years, while it was originally intended to serve for a maximum of 50 years. There was always the intention to build a new Parliament House. Old Parliament House had exceeded its capacity by the 1970s. Construction of the New Parliament House in Canberra began in 1981, and the House was finally opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 9 May 1988, the anniversary of the opening of both the first Federal Parliament in Melbourne (9 May 1901), and of the Provisional Parliament House in Canberra (9 May 1927).
John Smith Murdoch was the chief architect of Commonwealth Australia in 1919. He was accountable for designing many early Canberra buildings the most well known being the Provisional Parliament House.
It has been preserved as a historical building.
