Near the corner of Parry Street and Quarry Street is the Fremantle Substation, which was built in 1932 as a power station for the Fremantle Municipal Tramway network.[1] It was taken over by the State Energy Commission of Western Australia when the trams were decommissioned in 1952, and operated as an energy-themed museum from 1989 to 2009, before being sold into private ownership at the latter date. Private residential apartments are planned[needs update] for the site, with the original building exterior being mostly retained.[1]
