Petrie Terrace takes its name from the road of the same name, itself named after pioneer Andrew Petrie, whose son John became the first mayor of the Town of Brisbane in 1859. The area was already earmarked for public use early on, with a cemetery reserved on the western side of Hale Street in 1843 and the 'Green Hills' reserved for a new jail in 1860 — the sites of today's Lang Park (Suncorp Stadium) and the old Victoria Army Barracks respectively. As a walking town without horse buses or trams, Brisbane's earliest subdivisions here were kept as small as seven perches to squeeze in as many workers' cottages as possible, making Petrie Terrace Brisbane's sixth suburb after North Brisbane, South Brisbane, Kangaroo Point, Fortitude Valley and Spring Hill, and one of the few areas with housing congestion resembling inner Melbourne or Sydney.
Among the earliest surviving examples of that dense cottage building is Princess Row, four dwellings built in 1863 where Princess Street meets Petrie Terrace. The former Petrie Terrace Police Depot, built from the 1850s, later became a redeveloped commercial and retail precinct known as 'The Barracks' in 2007-08. Petrie Terrace was formally deemed a locality within central Brisbane between 1975 and 2010, before again being officially recorded as its own suburb from June 2010.
