They should create a sister ‘grand arbour’, in either copy or in homage.

Southbank 1 is one of Australia’s most successful ‘private/public’ built development. Any repeat of the original Southbank will only be a good thing for Brisbane.

Interesting sculptural elements at street level, however, no amount of decoration can mask the bland modernism that comprises the entire shaft…we have moved away from these types of highrise, for good reason.

this will not be minimalist-style, New Yorkesque, tasteful parkland, it will no doubt be a collection of overpriced & vulgar eateries for the proletariat smashed together with some equally vulgar apartments for the middle class aspirant types. The new park atop the Kangaroo Point cliffs isn’t bad, but we should be quite suspicious of any “cost neutral” development, especially one that is based around so many buildings of historical significance. And as if South Bank 1 wasn’t bad enough by itself?

Cutting edge stuff, and who would not be happy with all the thought put into these developments. Brisbane has come of age, old and new like 2 old friends.
