French Street Centre is a well-established Townsville landmark, situated at 28 French Street in one of the city's most connected inner suburbs. The centre was established to bring together a carefully selected mix of local businesses — giving Pimlico residents and Townsville visitors a single convenient destination for personal services, professional advice and practical storage solutions. What sets it apart from larger commercial precincts is its scale and community feel. This isn't a big-box retail strip or a faceless industrial estate — it's a human-sized neighbourhood hub where business owners know their customers by name and where you can genuinely take care of multiple errands in a single visit.
Free, unlimited on-site parking has always been central to the experience. In a city where parking frustration is a daily reality for many, being able to pull in, do everything you need and leave without watching a meter is something our tenants' customers genuinely appreciate. The centre has evolved steadily with the needs of the Pimlico community — welcoming new businesses, adapting its tenant mix and continuing to offer the secure self storage that has served Townsville residents and local businesses throughout its operation.
Five independently operated local businesses, each bringing genuine expertise to Pimlico and the broader Townsville community.
A premium skin care and beauty centre offering a full range of rejuvenating facial treatments, waxing services and spa experiences. Chez Belle has built a loyal following of Townsville clients who return for the quality of care and the relaxed, professional atmosphere.
A well-established Pimlico hair salon known for quality cuts, colouring and styling. Liddy's welcomes both appointments and walk-ins, making it easy for locals to fit a visit into their day without the pressure of booking weeks in advance.
Professional therapeutic massage for relaxation and recovery. Hawaii Massage offers a range of treatments including deep tissue, relaxation and remedial massage — a popular choice for Townsville residents looking to manage stress and maintain their wellbeing.
Experienced local Townsville accountants providing tax returns, BAS preparation, bookkeeping and business advisory services. Finch & Finch have been serving individuals and small businesses in Pimlico and the wider Townsville area for many years, bringing straightforward professional advice to their clients.
Secure self storage units at the rear of French Street Centre, available in three sizes — 18sqm, 24sqm and 30sqm. Drive-up access, free on-site parking and a secure gated complex make it one of the most conveniently accessible storage options in Townsville. A minimum three-month term applies. Customers supply their own padlock.
Pimlico sits just minutes from the Townsville CBD, making it one of the city's most practical inner suburbs for both residents and businesses. French Street Centre benefits directly from this location — our customers can reach us easily from across the city, and can combine a visit here with everything else Pimlico and the broader Townsville area has to offer.
The suburb is home to Pimlico State High School, one of North Queensland's leading state secondary schools, making it popular with families. The Townsville Mater Hospital is also close by, providing convenience for medical staff, patients and visitors who need nearby services.
The Strand — Townsville's iconic beachfront promenade — is a short drive away, as is Castle Hill, the distinctive granite monolith that offers panoramic views across the city, Magnetic Island and Cleveland Bay. The Townsville CBD and Ross River are both easily accessible from French Street.
