So the Fox Hotel in South Brisbane (right on Fish Lane, been shut since the 2022 floods) is finally reopening Saturday, except it’s not the Fox anymore. They’ve brought back the original name from when it first opened in 1927: Hotel Terminus.

Anyone remember it from the Fox days?

Saw the announcement about Suncorp getting its biggest revamp in over 20 years. Here’s the rundown:

- Two sightscreens behind the goals are getting lifted up and turned into a 360-degree wraparound LED ribbon screen suspended from the roof
- New supersized scoreboards going in
- Where the old screens were, they’re putting in a ticketed standing-only zone plus two new entertainment areas with bars and food
-Removing those sightscreens bumps capacity up by around 1,000 (currently 52,500)
-New terraced viewing areas behind the goals at both ends, mix of standing and seating
-Safe standing zones within the seating bowl and concourse
-Out on the forecourts at each end, new external screens as big as two tennis courts to greet fans before they head in
- These are Australian-first media mesh screens

Timing wise, design work has started, construction expected to kick off towards the end of the year, and the whole thing should be done before the 2032 Games.

No roof in this plan for anyone wondering.

caravans, campervans, camper trailers and all the camping gear and gadgets

On until Saturday. Probably paid entry but not 100% positive.

- $500M redevelopment greenlit by council
- Brisbane’s first over-river pool (public access in mornings, venue vibes at night)
- 106-room boutique hotel with Story Bridge views
- New Felons Barrel Hall with permanent live music stage
- Cascading riverfront stairs straight to the river
- Two new cliffside lifts
- Redesigned pontoons for boats and river tourism
- 30% more public outdoor space
- Ciao glasshouse getting demolished for a new two-storey venue
- Rivershed getting completely reimagined
- Some stuff could open as early as next year
- Full completion before 2032

Riverwalk and existing venues stay open during construction.

Thoughts?

If anyone cares Greenhouse at Quay Waterfront just opened. The whole wall slides open onto the Brisbane River, there’s an outdoor water terrace surrounded by ponds out back.

Food is nice. The booths are cool.

Does anyone have any recommendations for car shows in Brisbane?
