In 1986, when the Lubavitcher Rebbe encouraged the purchase and/or expansion of Chabad Houses throughout the world, Rabbi Joseph Gutnick purchased a historic mansion at 5 Brisbane St. Launceston as a permanent home for Chabad. Rabbi Yossi Gordon as traveling Shliach, operated the Chabad House and its activities for 25 years with the invaluable help of local volunteer Gershon Goldsteen.
