Perth will never be a world class city if significant aspects of it's past cannot be preserved and creatively repurposed. This is what gives an urban environment richness, interest and texture. I am saddened that we as a society don't seem to have the imagination and vision to recognise the value and worth of strong, wonderful (if not 'pretty') buildings such as these.

FESA House is a true asset to the city of Perth. As a city, we have lost enough architectural icons already. Please don't repeat the mistakes of your predecessors. FESA House is an important part of our city's heritage. By repurposing and developing the existing building, something truly special could be created for the future. Thanks for your time.

FESA house, though unconventional looking, from an architectural perspective is an amazing building and a credit to Perth as a participant of the global brutalist movement in architecture. West Australians are perceived globally as a bunch of backwards farmers who dig holes. Please don't perpetuate this idea by allowing our fragile cultural heritage to be demolished.

This is a bit of a Perth icon in a city with a dearth of interesting architecture. With its unique layout it could easily be a gallery, cultural centre, academic annex or simply an interesting mall. My vote would be a mixed-use retail/cultural venue with cinema space - something lacking since the demise of the Picadilly Cinema. Save the Cylon!

This is significant architecture. We need to preserve this as many modern buildings are getting demolished.

FESA House is a great piece of architecture and has the potential to become an icon of a currently-overlooked part of the inner-city. Demolishing it would be an incredibly short-sighted decision.

Please don't take another important, brutalist building away which helps contribute to the history and identity of Perth.
Don't do it!!!
