What are the advantages of Victoria Park/Barrambin Stadium? Connected, equitable and enlivens existing inner city precincts (which are walkable from the stadium). The stadium would be accessible and connected to 5 existing mass transit stations - Exhibition, Herston, RBWH, QUT & Normanby Stations. It's central location within the inner city enables better and easier access for more people (i.e. more equitable). Match-day events would activate, enliven and strengthen the economic viability of adjacent inner city precincts such as Kelvin Grove Urban Village & King Street (Fortitude Valley). Event-day experiences for spectators would be enhanced through the offer of walkable pre-event and post-event gathering venues in the existing commercial/activity centres. An iconic food, beverage and function centre/precinct (proposed at the southern edge of QUT) leverages the western entry/promenade, parkland address and enhances the sequence of spaces between the stadium and 'Main Street' in Kelvin Grove Urban Village. #legacy #connected #urbandesign #urbanvitality #landscapearchitecture #brisbaneolympics

Some thoughts on these luxury megaprojects... Should this be a net negative project? should it provide the excess energy produced for free? what would the upfront carbon cost be - and when would this start being in the negative area? Are the rich people going to have a first home (or only home) there? We have surpassed +1.5C and we are going towards +2C - last year CO2 increase was 5ppm - when the average till then was 2.4ppm. Should we be rethinking all these excessive projects in terms of necessity? or is it ''who cares about effect on climate, we have money we should be allowed to build...''. A 2bn project is bound to have a lot of carbon intensive materials there. marble brought in from who knows where, extracted who knows how... etc
