"Perched above a lush park overlooking the Brisbane River, the beautiful Newstead House is Brisbane's oldest surviving residence, dating back to 1846. Where once it stood as a simple colonial Georgian cottage, home to Darling Downs pioneer Patrick Leslie, over the years it has grown to reflect the history of Brisbane, serving as a Botanic Institute, the first headquarters of the Royal Historical society of Queensland, and even acting as the living quarters for American service personnel during WWII. Today the homestead offers visitors a slice of Brisbane history, as it’s painted and furnished in the style of the late Victorian period."

Underneath the square there is a subterranean shopping center and there are several stair wells leading down from the square into the mall.
