The historic Boundary Hotel at West End is set to undergo the first stage of its refurbishment.

The hotel was purchased by Oz Pub Group in June 2017 for $8.8 million and in November 2017 a development application was submitted to Brisbane City Council.

A heritage report submitted to the council said the hotel was built about 1884.

The assessment report submitted as part of the application said the application was to extend the existing pub.

“Whilst it is ultimately proposed to refurbish the entire Boundary Hotel, the proposed extensions and modification the subject of this application are limited to the existing hotel,” it said.
