155 Queen Street, Brisbane
Queen Street Mall is located in the centre of the Brisbane's
Central Business District. The mall is widely regarded as
one of the most successful pedestrian spaces in Australia
with more than half a million people using the mall each
week. (Note from the Brisbane
City Council Web site).
Over the last 3 years, the mall has undergone a transformation
and a total upgrade with 75% of
|
the associated costs being funded by traders. The initial
design, released on September 4 1998, was developed after
extensive consultation with the community and retailers.
After several months of community discussion and review,
the design was finalised and presented to media and retailers/property
owners in December 1998. Construction commenced in January
1999 with the mall opening on November 12 1999.
