Report – Valuing the Queensland Museum
"People rightly ask what is the contribution made to the lives of Queenslanders by our cultural organisations. The Queensland Museum and cultural organisations in general must be prepared to respond in an informed way. This is especially true in challenging economic times as the Museum plans the next developments on its campuses throughout the State. Valuing the Queensland Museum: A Contingency Valuation Study provides a new way of assessing the public value of the Queensland Museum. The Study presents evidence of this ongoing value in economic terms, based on sound, well-established survey and analysis techniques. The findings are comprehensive and provide a clear picture of the Museum's importance to its various stakeholders state-wide. This is the first time a cultural organisation in Australia has conducted such a study and it provides a model that might usefully be an exemplar for other organisations. I congratulate all those involved in the Study, both for the rigour of the research and analysis process and for the clarity of the reported outcomes. I commend the Study to our many supporters and friends. These are very exciting times for our Museum. Peter Swannell AM, Chair Board of the Queensland Museum The Queensland Museum wishes to thank Gillian Savage and Dr Rob Hall from Environmentrics and Professor David Throsby from Macquarie University for their support in developing and implementing this CVM Study of the Queensland Museum. As well the Museum expresses it’s thanks to McNair Ingenuity Research for conducting the actual web-based survey. 1 Valuing the Queensland Museum: A Contingent Valuation Study 2008 Report prepared by Deborah Tranter April 2009 On behalf of the Steering Committee: Deborah Tranter Director, Cobb+Co Museum and Regional Services Sarah Perrott Manager- Corporate Communications and Marketing Stephanie Tickle Project Manager, Corporate Services and Business Development 2 3 CONTENTS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY................................................................................................ -

SQUATTERS, SELECTORS and — DARE I SAY IT — SPECULATORS by Helen Gregory Read to the Royal Historical Society of Queensland on 23 June, 1983
SQUATTERS, SELECTORS AND — DARE I SAY IT — SPECULATORS by Helen Gregory Read to the Royal Historical Society of Queensland on 23 June, 1983. This paper attempts to fill a small part of one of the many large gaps which currently exist in the pubhshed history of Brisbane. Books and articles published over the past twenty-five years have added to our knowledge and understanding of the exploration of the Brisbane region, its beginnings in convictism, its built environment, its adminis trative history and the broad lines of development of the city and its suburbs. This paper looks at a rather different aspect; it looks at people as well as events and at land rather than buildings. It concentrates on two very important decades, the 1840's and 1850's, which are so far either largely absent from the published record or mentioned briefly between the fascinations of convictism and the' excitement of newly independent colonial and city government. These two decades were, however, very important formative years in the city's history during which the main outlines of the future development of the Brisbane area became discernible; the battle for urban dominance between Brisbane and Ipswich was played out and a major political division which has been a persistent motif in Queens land politics arose between an essentially conservative rural interest and a more liberal urban interest. The quest for land and the development of the land have been equally persistent motifs. This paper looks at some of the land bought and sold at this time, at two of the people who invested in it, and at the relationship between their land holdings and their business and political activities. -

A notable owner/occupier of the house was one of the founding members of the Toowong Baptist Church, the Rev William Richer. Although the house has been considerably altered, it still retains most of its original nineteenth century core. History The Deed of Grant was issued on this property on 23 December 1853 to Michael O’Neil. At this time the grant was in nineteen acres, one rood, and 23 perches in size. The property was gradually subdivided during the period from 1863 through to 1879 by the then owner John Kingsford. The land was then purchased by John Lawry in July 1879. Lawry owned the land for a short period before transferring the ownership into the hands of Francis Gill in October 1887. Gill took out a loan for £1000 and further advances repayable with interest’ on the same day as purchase. In April 1888 Gill subdivided just over 37 perches off the property and disposed of it to Jans Sorensen. Sorensen, at the time of purchase, had taken a mortgage for £200 payable at £8 per quarter to the eventual next owner of the property, Richard Warren Weedon, ‘gentleman’, of Oxley. -
Sunshine Coast | Queensland Historical Atlas
Search Home Quintessential Queensland Distance Division Dreaming Development Home » Development » Transformation Sunshine Coast By: Chris McConville The Sunshine Coast is one of Australia’s most rapidly changing regions. On the one hand inter-state migration is transforming once distinctive coastal and farming townships into a uniform suburban expanse. On the other, climatic transitions are reshaping the wide beaches and pristine waterways. As a result the once clear northern boundary, formed in the broad sweep of the Noosa river estuary, is now fudged, as tourist development inserts itself on the forested north bank of the river. The Sunshine Coast, c1984 southern borderland of the Sunshine Coast meanders between the marine park of Pumicestone Passage, commercial pine plantations and the conical peaks and fruit farms of the Glasshouse Mountains. These form a precarious divide between the distinctiveness of the Sunshine Coast as a Suburban portions of Noosa and Tewantin, 1944 region and a fast approaching northern boundary of suburban Brisbane. In the main a sandy lowland, the Sunshine Coast runs from north of Brisbane to the Noosa River. It is bounded to the east by surf beaches and the Coral Sea, to the west the abrupt escarpment of the Blackall Range Sunshine Coast, 2000 defines the inland margins of the Coast. Here dense forest, few made roads and sparsely populated green valleys demarcate a natural order quite distinct from the breathless rebuilding of the coast. The recently-created Sunshine Coast Regional Council runs across three estuarine environments of the Mooloolah, Maroochy and Noosa Rivers. These coastal flat lands often swampy and in part below sea level were formed over thousands of years by sand washed ashore along coastal currents.
