Abstract: This article examines the concept of adaptive reuse of heritage places and notes the benefits and perceived disadvantages of applying such a concept to buildings identified as being of heritage significance. It notes that although there have been many successful examples of the application of the concept around Australia, there are limited references to the concept in the heritage and planning legislation and policy of the States and mainland Territories. The article maintains that the success is due in large part to the careful application of the adaptive reuse principles contained in the Australian ICOMOS Charter for Places of Cultural Significance 1999 (the Burra Charter) on a case-by-case basis by heritage advisors and heritage authorities. It queries whether this is the best way to approach issues of adaptive reuse and suggests that, ideally, heritage and planning legislation should contain more specific provisions requiring that adaptive reuse proposals be undertaken in accordance with the Burra Charter principles.
