The Edwards and Chapman Building is a heritage-listed building located at 120 Queen Street, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.

The building was built in 1881-1882 and was occupied in 1882 by Edwards and Chapman, who operated a drapery business.[1] In 1891, Edwards retired but Chapman and Company continued to operate from the building until 1938. Subsequently the building has been occupied by many businesses. In 1992 when the building was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register, it was occupied by the women's clothing store Sportsgirl.[2]
