Anzac Avenue
Opened in 1925, Anzac Memorial Avenue (as it was originally named) is the longest World War I memorial avenue in Queensland and was the first bitumen motor road connecting Brisbane to the popular holiday resort of Redcliffe, and reflects the growth in car usage in the early 1920s. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 5 February 2009.

The first building on the avenue, the Gateway West Building, was designed by architect Welton Becket (1902–1969) and built in 1963. Located on the southwest corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and the Avenue of the Stars, it was demolished in 2015. The second building was the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza, designed by architect Minoru Yamasaki (1912–1986), and built from 1964 to 1966. At the same time, the Gateway East Building, on the southeast corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and the Avenue of the Stars, was completed in 1965; its exact address is 1800 Avenue of the Stars. Five years later, the 1900 Avenue of the Stars building, designed by architect Albert C. Martin, Jr. (1913–2006), was completed in 1970.
