Facts and practical information

The Frank Tate Building, also known as Building 189, is a student centre of The University of Melbourne, Parkville Campus, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Designed by Percy Edgar Everett, it was built between 1939 and 1940 as an expansion of the Melbourne Teachers' College, housed in the '1888 Building' to the south. In 1994 the Melbourne Teachers' College relocated and the building became part of the main Melbourne University Parkville Campus. In 2010 it was refurbished as a learning centre by COX Architects, designed to allow a multitude of different user groups to configure the space according to their individual requirements. ()
