Joy for some, but bold vision for Woolloongabba’s future sparks debate
@Source: brisbanetimes.com.au
A new vision for Woolloongabba’s future after the Olympics is under way, sparking celebration for some, and fresh doubts for others.
Premier David Crisafulli this week confirmed the Gabba would be bulldozed after the Olympics to make way for a mixed-use urban renewal site. This would complement the new recommendation for the Brisbane Live Arena to be built across the road, rather than at Roma Street Parkland.
The news was welcomed by the East Brisbane State School community, which has been staring down the possible destruction of their 125-year-old heritage-listed school since the Labor government first floated plans to revamp the Gabba.
Education Minister John-Paul Langbroek said Tuesday’s announcement put an end to “the uncertainty that’s been affecting this community for nearly five years”.
