Newstead House is Brisbane's oldest surviving home, built in 1846 as a cottage for Patrick Leslie and set above the point where Breakfast Creek meets the Brisbane River, in the suburb of Newstead. It operates today as a house museum open to the public, with the grounds also hosting community events and an annual Battle of the Coral Sea commemoration each May. An Australian-American monument in the surrounding park marks the US service members who helped defend Australia in the Second World War.
