Alice Street, Brisbane

Alice Street is a central road in Brisbane, Australia. It is the most southern major road in the city's central business district, running parallel to the other female named streets in the city.

In a pocket of land between a curve of the Brisbane River and Alice Street is the Brisbane City Botanic Gardens and the Parliament House. Access to the Gardens Point QUT campus and the Riverside Expressway is provided at the western end of the street.

The male named streets from William Street to Edward Street end at intersections with Alice Street.

Brisbane Ferries operated from the eastern end as early as the 1860's.
