Better by Nature BETTER BY NATURE As Brisbane city continues to develop and grow, so too does our desire for space and nature. The truth is, these have become the new luxuries in urban living. Many places can offer high-end appointments and modern comforts, but few can deliver a sense of space in a blossoming city. The Sylvan promises to do just this, combining the premium aspects and amenity of inner-city life, with the refreshing appeal of parkside living, all within one of Brisbane’s most well-connected and cherished suburbs. This is effortless living the way nature intended. This is life at The Sylvan – Toowong’s Parkside Residences. 2 3 TO DOWNLOAD AND BE RETOUCHED A SUBURB ADORED BY A CITY The Sylvan is nestled in the heart of Toowong – a city hub long celebrated by locals and visitors alike for its lively entertainment offering, diverse living options, genial vibe, and laid-back lifestyle. During the week, it’s alive with stylish professionals going about their day, friends catching up at the many cafés and restaurants, and groups with shopping-filled agendas. When the weekend arrives, the area bursts even more to life as modish urban dwellers flock to unwind at the iconic Regatta Hotel and various other social hangouts close by. But Toowong is as much about business as it is about leisure. The suburb is equally revered for its diverse commercial precinct, boasting enterprise of every size and service – from giant multinationals to humble sole traders, and everything in between. 4 5 CBD QUT GOMA GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY SOUTH BANK GO BETWEEN BRIDGE SUNCORP STADIUM UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND THE WESLEY HOSPITAL AUCHENFLOWER TRAIN STATION REGATTA CITYCAT TOOWONG TRAIN STATION TOOWONG VILLAGE 6 7 FOR THOSE GOING PLACES The Sylvan’s position couldn’t be more perfect.

Rising above the lush canopy of the adjacent Toowong Memorial Park, the outlook is a rare offering not just in Toowong, but also inner-city Brisbane. 14 15 SERENITY WITH AMENITY For a development of this calibre, it’s only natural that The Sylvan features first-rate facilities and comforts.

  • Alternative Media in Brisbane 1965-1985
    5535 words Alternative Media in Brisbane: 1965-1985 Stephen Stockwell Brisbane under the Country/National Party governments from 1957 to 1989 is often portrayed as a cultural desert. While there were certainly many ‘Queensland refugees’ who went to the southern states and overseas to realize their creativity, this paper’s review of alternative media in Brisbane between 1965 and 1985 substantiates previous claims that the political repression also encouraged others with radical views to stay to contribute to the extra-parliamentary opposition. The radical movement is revealed as adept at using the products of technological change (including new printing processes, FM radio and light-weight Super 8 and video camera equipment) to create new audiences interested not only in alternative politics but also contemporary creativity. In particular this paper argues that by countering Premier Bjelke-Petersen’s skilful management of the mainstream media, alternative media workers were producing the basis of the thriving creative industry scene that exists in Brisbane today, as well as non-doctrinaire ideas that may have a wider application. Bjelke-Petersen’s Brisbane and the Willis Thesis In his novel Johnno, David Malouf captures the spirit of Brisbane after the Second World War: ‘Our big country town that is still mostly weather-board and one-storey, so little a city… so sleepy, so slatternly so sprawlingly unlovely!’ (Malouf 1975: 51) With little industrial development and mining profits going south or overseas, Brisbane did not have the economic base to sustain the large, lively and well-financed cultural scenes of Sydney and Melbourne. Critics and residents alike accepted Brisbane as provincial, stunted and without a creative spark.

The church was built at the height of the Valley’s residential boom to accommodate the expanding numbers of Presbyterians in the area. The Sabbath school originally operated from the church building but its popularity encouraged the 1906 construction of the Sabbath school building. The school was extended in 1925 and both the church and school were refurbished in 1935. The church continued to serve the spiritual needs of the local parish through the mid-twentieth century until numbers dwindled. Following the amalgamation of the Methodist, Presbyterian and Congregational churches in 1977, ownership of the building was transferred to the Uniting Church in 1980. In 1989 the building was privately sold and is no longer in use as a church. History The Presbyterian Church had been a force in Brisbane from the early 1850s, and was instrumental in the development of Fortitude Valley.

As a continuously functioning hotel for over 115 years it has a strong social significance for the Toowong area. The Royal Exchange Building was built as an adjunct to the hotel in the interwar period. This commercial building and automobile garage was designed by notable interwar Brisbane architect G.F. Addison and, by virtue of its prominent position and simple, effective architectural design, is a landmark in the commercial centre of Toowong. History Royal Exchange Hotel The present site on which the hotel is located is an amalgam of a variety of allotments. A Railway Hotel operated at Toowong from c.1876. Evidence is inconclusive if the hotel referred to as the (Toowong) Railway was the predecessor of the Royal Exchange Hotel.

Boland (Builder) Criterion for listing (A) Historical; (B) Rarity; (E) Aesthetic; (H) Historical association This interwar house, designed by notable Brisbane architect Richard Gailey Jnr, is an excellent example of a two storey American Colonial Style residence. It was constructed circa 1930 for Maude Smith and named ‘St. Briavels,’ possibly after the village in Gloucestershire, England. This house is a good example of the kinds of middle to upper class residences built in elevated positions on or near the Brisbane River in the early to mid twentieth century, allowing residents to take advantage of the views and cool breezes. History This particular allotment was purchased in July 1930 by Maude Smith (listed as Howard-Smith in the Post Office Directory). The allotment was part of a larger block of land, which was attached to the adjacent property known as Udale. The Toowong area during the interwar period saw a number of smaller subdivisions created from the sale of land attached to the earlier residences, which were usually set upon larger allotments Richard Gailey Jnr was the architect engaged to design and supervise construction. The owner of the house obviously required completion as soon as possible, as tenders were called in the July 10 issue of The Architect and Builder Journal of Queensland for a ‘wood residence at Toowong: closing July 18.’ The application submitted to the Brisbane City Council in September of 1930, was for a wood residence with a tiled roof.
