The Queens Wharf Tower Commemorative Pin! QWT was here for a good time, not a long time - although longer than expected. Opened in 1988 for Australia's bicentenary, QWT was originally planned to stay up for just 5 - 10 years. Now just part of Newcastle's fabulous history but one you can hold onto! Shop link in bio. Free delivery within Australia.
