| Remember slug and tower? Well this is the diluted slug and tower after everyone had their say on the design (don't you just love public consultations): By UrbisJHD: And the original idea: ![]() Last edited by Locke; 10th April 2007 at 09:48.. | |||||||||||

| I don't want anything to be built. A nice park with grass and trees would be nice, not metal pointless crap. | |||||||||||

| In Brisbane's most historical and prime public square? Maybe a bit of grass but all grass and trees would be too much and not really sensible for a public thoroughfare... especially with the worlds biggest underground busway terminal now about to be finished soon.ATM, It's average... look on the bright side!! At least we didn't get the playground/sunshade design!!! I'm just keeping my fingers crossed for the federation style big screen Last edited by SoulVision; 10th April 2007 at 10:59.. | |||||||||||

| I like the new design. Minimalist, yet good quality. Airy and open enough to still be called a square. This will also have good access into the busway station. Personally I think it's better than the Slug and Tower Design. Now all the need to do is demolish the Carlton Crest and build supertall on that site.
