Here's the ever changing view of the city from Gladstone Road in Highgate Hill. Plenty of cranes around the monolithic "Tower of Power", 1 William Street, which is soon going to hold all of Brisbane's civil servants and is dominating the skyline at the moment.<br />
<br />
But not for too long...the powers that be have approved this giant casino complex called Queens Wharf <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H20rIZN080k" target="_blank">see the computer fly-through here</a>. Due to start construction next year and be finished around 2022. The view from here will certainly be very different by then.<br />

Whoops! I missed the theme day. Too busy galavanting on the other side of the world. I discovered that wifi alone doesn't cut the mustard (in UK, Ireland and Greece, anyway). The coverage was sketchy and the speed was slow. And blogging from a phone is a bit hard for me too. OK grumpy old bird rant over. I know I know first world problems and all that.<br />
<br />
So July's theme day was 'Look Down' and here's my offering. The view from the City Hall clock tower on to the concreter's dream that is King George Square. The square underwent a renovation a few years ago. It used to be grass with fountains and big trees to sit under. Now in the middle of summer the searing heat bounces off the concrete and reaches face-melting temperatures. There's hardly any shade or anywhere to sit. On the plus side, if you fancy protesting against poor urban planning, you can fit thousands in to this space and the clean up afterwards is relatively easy.carahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12787018321269238581noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789824185334583755.post-11051000945658786202016-06-17T07:00:00.000+10:002016-06-17T07:00:04.789+10:00This is my stop!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

At 92m, City Hall in Brisbane used to be the tallest building in town until the 1960s. Now it's completely dwarfed by the huge towers that are going up in the CBD but it's still fun (and free) to go up to the clock tower in an ancient manual-operated lift. You get a different perspective on the city from up there. This is looking north-west with Albert Street on the right, Roma Street train station and Roma Street parklands.carahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12787018321269238581noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789824185334583755.post-70550566666486792402016-06-14T08:33:00.000+10:002016-06-14T08:33:51.778+10:00Blanket with your coffee?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My favourite place to sit and have a coffee is on the Goodwill Bridge. Great staff, lovely coffee and a picture-postcard view. (No, I'm not being paid to write that.) This was taken a couple of weeks ago from a moving CityCat so apologies for the blurriness. As you can see, it was warm enough to take your shirt off while canoeing down the river. It's chilled down to about 20 degrees celcius (68f) which means winter woolies for many Brisbane folks. I know. I used to laugh... but you get acclimatised after a few years. And if you're having coffee on the bridge at this time of year they even provide blankets. Toasty!<br />

Brisbane is in the middle of a building boom with cranes everywhere. This is the the junction of Adelaide and George streets on the site of the old law courts. They are building a high-rise luxury hotel - work has just finished on the 7-level basement. It looks like there was a <a href="https://www.300george.com/index.php/2016/06/06/accident-on-site/" target="_blank">recent break-in</a> to the site and someone took the machinery for a bit of a joyride costing $100K worth of damage... but things appear to be back on track now.

The wheel was yellow in the middle and white around the outside last night. I told my daughter it was just like an egg and to which she gave me a look like "that's stretching it a bit". Then we arrived at our destination visiting friends staying at Casino Towers with this amazing view and -hey presto- check out the reflection in the river!<br />

The sacred ibis isn't so sacred in Brisbane. They have adapted well to urban life here and hang out anywhere there might be a free meal such as park barbeques and bins.

In an effort to buy more local produce I've joined a local food buying
group. We've got quite a few popping up all over Brisbane. We try and order fruit, vegetables and eggs from local farmers.
We've also got local dairies, bakeries and grocery suppliers on board and some of our members even sell their own stuff too... meaning
our trips to the supermarket are less frequent and we spend a lot less
of our money there.<br />

This is one of many building sites along the river in West End. A few years ago this was an industrial area. Today, it is unrecognisable. There is a feeling of impending doom among the community as the market gets more and more saturated with luxury apartments with names like Breeze, Light and Co, Vida and Virtuoso. There have been petitions, protests and numerous submissions to council to reduce the amount of development so that it is sustainable but it largely has fallen on deaf ears. carahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12787018321269238581noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789824185334583755.post-43477101239540701042016-06-04T10:54:00.000+10:002016-06-04T10:54:48.916+10:00Thirst Quencher<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We haven't had much rain to speak of for months. Our summer this year was very dry and that's when we normally get the bulk of our year's rain. But now, 4 days into our official winter, it isn't just raining - it's an "event" according to the media. It's been pouring steadily in Brisbane since last night and is forecast to continue throughout the day delivering totals of between 100 and 200 mls. My plants will be happy! <br />

Here's my take on the City Daily Photo theme <i>Shadows and Highlights</i>. Morning breaking through the kitchen windows at work. Plenty of shadows and the prospect of food which, for me, is always a highlight.<br />

The big fig trees which line Oxford Street by the Memorial Park in Bulimba have these funky sleeves to protect them. Prop roots spring from the branches like scaffolding and grow downwards to support the huge weight of the tree and as a consequence they can grow over a vast area. Here's a closer view: <br />

It reminds me of a poem by Brisbane's newly elected Greens councillor who recited it as part of an unprecedented maiden speech in council last month. A poem in council!? The rest of the councillors probably thought he was mad; a bit out-there for Brisbane! But you don't get more Brisbane than this:<br />
<br />
Roots down<br />
roots down<br />
roots down<br />
roots down<br />
my heart's buried deep under Brisbane town<br />
creekbeds, hilltops, riding around<br />
cracking macadamias and putting roots down<br />
I am of this city<br />
its history is my history<br />
my scraped knee and my favourite tree<br />
and swimming lessons in the pool at Craigslea Primary<br />
and Oxley's expedition back in 1823<br />
and our Year 4 excursion to Saint Helena Island<br />
and those weather-worn tennis balls that we were always finding<br />
and the floods of 1974<br />
and the invasion of 1788<br />
and the park on the north side where I rode without training wheels for the first time<br />
and the frog pond of drowning Christmas beetles<br />
and Joh Bjelke-Pietersen<br />
and hunting Easter eggs in the backyard<br />
and hunting kangaroos by Breakfast Creek<br />
and the roller coaster at the top of the Myer Centre that looked like a dragon and screamed at the madness beneath<br />
Roots down<br />
roots down<br />
this town<br />
roots down<br />
My roots are tendrils, tentacles<br />
reaching down below<br />
splitting concrete and bitumen digging in<br />
The soil is soft after summer storms<br />
and the roots grow quickly, thickly<br />
but Brisbane's burbs're built on clay<br />
so once they're down they're down to stay<br />
Roots down roots down brushtail growl hear that sound<br />
But now and then in this circus I encounter a clown<br />
who thinks that because he's got his roots in the ground<br />
he somehow gains the right to define this town<br />
and decide who else gets to put roots down<br />
See the surface seems sufficiently serene<br />
but if you peel back the bandaid you'll see the gangrene<br />
And now I see you've forgotten<br />
I see your roots are rotten<br />
but this garden has no gardener<br />
that's how we got to where we've gotten<br />
The question on my mind is where we going?<br />
This city is growing<br />
sauropod construction cranes on every horizon<br />
jackhammer clattering drowns out the cicadas<br />
the relentless march of apartment towers makes suburbanites nervous<br />
so they build higher fences<br />
and mow their lawns weekly<br />
Roots down, stolen ground<br />
dead trees, river brown<br />
I know something's awry in this city<br />
but I can't quite put my finger on it<br />
It's like we've outgrown the garden bed<br />
roots in a twist<br />
slumbering suburbs<br />
silence those who resist<br />
Vision blurring<br />
but now I hear them stirring<br />
climb Mt Cootha at midnight<br />
see them lighting candles and switching off TVs<br />
Flying foxes in the trees<br />
stench of rotten mangoes<br />
gives way to a cool south-easterly<br />
Pumpkin vines wither and die but the passionfruit keeps growing<br />
skyscrapers sprouting up from the bedrock<br />
Wivenhoe overflowing<br />
activists invade city hall and the clocktower falls silent in anticipation<br />
Change is coming to Brisbane town<br />
we feel it in the soil<br />
while we cracking macadamias and putting roots down<br />

This is the new government building that is starting to loom over William Street and the river. It takes up an entire city block and can be seen from all over Brisbane. It's due to be completed in the middle of 2017. That tower block next to it is the Parliamentary Annexe building and used to be the tallest thing along that stretch of skyline.
