A few days back I decided to pay a visit to the Brisbane City Hall building.
Too lazy to type too much, so this will be a primarily picture post.
The interesting thing about the building is you can go up to the top of the clocktower, and have a look at the Brisbane CBD. I suppose in the old days it would have been the tallest structure in the city. However, now with all the tall office buildings, its kinda dwarfed 360 degrees. But anyway......
I was there.
It's interesting that the clock is below the viewing deck, while the bells are just above you. The guide joked that it scared and deafened many a tourist who went up there at noon. :)
Anyway, views:
Looking towards the Myer Centre at Queens St mall.
Looking towards the CBD where all the office buildings are. If you look closely at the bottom right, you can see Wintergarden.
A old church with the Suncorp clock in the background. The Suncorp clock is probably more seen than the clock below me.
Construction of the Inner Northen Busway, which will link the Queen St bus mall with Kelvin Grove underground.
Ann St. With the same church.
The strip below is a section of the the newly rebuilt Albert St mall.
You can't see it, but this is the general direction looking towards QUT.
The huge dome of the City Hall building.
Looking towards South Bank. The building with the nice bright colors is the new Brisbane Square library.
As I said, picture post.
