Save Wharf Shed 1 from demolition
It's the last remaining wharf shed in the Port's Inner Harbor. Too much of the Port's character and maritime history has been eroded away. Adaptive re-use of the wharf shed is a win for the Port, for tourism and is economically viable too.
Read about the history of this shed in the September 2016 Missive. (Thanks to Michael Weir for his research).

Petition to protest against the demolition of Wharf Shed 1
Our PoANT Facebook page has many posts and photographs about adaptive re-use of wharf sheds in other places. It also provides an opportunity for community members to share their thoughts and opinions about our heritage. The Facebook page is the place to go to find out what is happening currently in and around The Port.

Port of Adelaide National Trust
The Port of Adelaide Branch of the National Trust of South Australia (PoANT) was formed in October 2006 as a response to the community’s growing concerns regarding the rapid changes that were underway in Port Adelaide and on the LeFevre Peninsula. The branch became the 49th branch in this state.
Even before its first General Meeting, the branch had already attracted the largest membership of the 49 branches throughout South Australia and had one of the largest memberships in the country. Unlike the majority of the other branches, which look after buildings and collections, PoANT is purely focused on advocacy, providing members with opportunities to relay their heritage aspirations and concerns to all levels of government, business and the wider community.
PoANT contributes to the conservation and celebration of local heritage through: actions; supporting the broader community; and strategic partnerships.
It is a community-based organisation committed to raising awareness about, and protecting, the rich culture and heritage of the Greater Port Adelaide region.
‘The lives of present and future South Australians will be enriched by the conservation of our natural and cultural heritage’
