The Esplanade Reserve in Perth, Western Australia, was a heritage listed public space between Perth Water and the Perth central business district.[1] The public space was resumed by the Western Australian state government in April 2012 as part of the Elizabeth Quay redevelopment of the Perth waterfront area.[2][3]
Established in 1880 on land reclaimed from the Perth Water northern shore between the William Street and Barrack Street jetties, adjacent hotels, railway stations and other features have used the term Esplanade to show their link to the space.[4] The road along the northern boundary of that space is still, as of May 2022[update], called The Esplanade.
