  • Road Networked Artificial Islands and Finger Island Canal Estates on Australia’S Gold Coast

    Road Networked Artificial Islands and Finger Island Canal Estates on Australia’S Gold Coast

    Absolute Waterfrontage: Road Networked Artificial Islands and Finger Island Canal Estates on Australia’s Gold Coast Philip Hayward Kagoshima University Research Center for the Pacific Islands, University of Technology Sydney, & Southern Cross University, Lismore [email protected] Christian Fleury University of Caen, Normandy [email protected] Abstract: The Gold Coast, an urban conurbation stretching along the Pacific seaboard and adjacent hinterland of south east Queensland, has developed rapidly since the 1950s. Much of its development has involved the modification of existing watercourses so as to produce stable areas of land suitable for medium and high density development. This article addresses one particular facet of this, the development of artificial islands and of estates of ‘finger islands’ (narrow, peninsular areas with direct waterfrontage) and the canalised waterways that facilitate them. The article commences with a discussion of the concepts behind such developments and the nomenclature that has accrued to them, highlighting the contradictions between branding of finger island estates and the actualities of their realisation. This discussion is supported by historical reference to earlier artificial island estates in Florida that provided a model for Australian developers. Case studies of three specific Gold Coast waterfront locations conclude the main body of the article, reflecting on factors related to the stability of their community environments.

Australian Studies 18(1):pp. 187-210. © Copyright 2005 British Australian Studies Association 7 Embracing the Make-believe – The Making of Surfers Paradise KEITH MOORE School of Humanities and Human Services, Carseldine Campus – Queensland University of Technology, Beams Road, Carseldine, Queensland 4034, Australia. [email protected] A name can create an image that can have a powerful determining effect on an eventual outcome. In 1917, Real Estate Agent Thor Jensen decided that the name ‘Surfers Paradise’ could conjure the image of a beachside ‘Shangri-la’ in the minds of Australians. Together with Arthur Blackwood, he bought virtually uninhabited coastal land overlooking the Pacific Ocean at Elston, to the south of Southport, and sold it as ‘The Surfers Paradise Estate’. Opening a hotel a short distance from the foreshore eight years later, James Cavill embraced Jensen’s vision by naming his establishment ‘The Surfers Paradise Hotel’. Other entrepreneurs joined Cavill in catering for tourists and by the mid-1950s, the price of land at Surfers Paradise had gone ‘sky high’. The excitement continued with high-rise apartments and international-standard tourist hotels replacing much of the low-set accommodation erected a decade earlier. In commenting in 1988 that envy existed over the way Surfers Paradise had triumphed over other Gold Coast locations by possessing such a ‘promotable’ title, historian Alexander McRobbie recognised the locality’s unassailable position. Clearly, ‘Elston’ Australian Studies, Vol. 18, No. 1, Summer 2003, pp. 187-210 (issued in 2005) Published by the BRITISH AUSTRALIAN STUDIES ASSOCIATION 188 AUSTRALIAN STUDIES could not have captured the public’s imagination as a tourist destination in the way that Surfers Paradise had.

The tour of 15 people included members of the South West Group Board as well as member Council Planning Directors. The primary objective of the tour was to gain first hand knowledge on planning and development issues being utilised by Local Governments in regards to managing growth and providing community facilities. The three key themes incorporated into the tour itinerary included: • Coastal, foreshore and marina developments; • Civic precincts and associated facilities, such as libraries and community centres; and • Health and knowledge precincts The delegation was also briefed on issues related to local government amalgamations and major projects being planned or developed in the respective areas. This report outlines the key issues, achievements and challenges/lessons learnt from a regional economic development perspective. The South West Group will be considering issues and topics for future tours aimed at increasing knowledge and understanding on issues most relevant to the development of the region and building capacity in how to effectively manage these issues based on best practice approaches and experiences elsewhere.

ISBN-10: 0-9876055-0-X ISBN-13: 978-0-9876055-0-4 Run to Paradise The Chevron Hotel, Gold Coast, from Foundation to Renaissance Katherine Rickard Griffith University and Mode Design The post-war “boom” of the 1950s heralded an expansion into new holiday accommodation typologies on Australia’s Gold Coast. The introduction of the resort-hotel irrevocably altered the scale and type of architecture on the Gold Coast and established the direction that the development of the city has followed to this day. Among the projects that can be considered to have established this trajectory Stanley Korman’s Chevron Hotel is the undervalued middle child, oft overlooked but whose evolution over the proceeding half- century to its turn of the millennium Renaissance presents a narrative of the pursuit of an escape to ‘paradise’ on Australia’s Gold Coast. Following the end of World War Two the Gold Coast developed and expanded rapidly, during a period of economic “boom” with unprecedented growth throughout much of Australia, and indeed the western world.
