Brisbane's Biggest Buildings (And New Skyscrapers Under Construction)

[@fortuok]

One of the best things about living in the third Australia's biggest city is witnessing all these incredible projects from the very beginning. As a foreigner that chose this city as my home, I'm building a belonging sense day by day not even being involved in any of those projects. Excellent video! Great job! I'm looking forward to seeing these buildings finished!

Impressive! Excellent video - professional and information condensed. Great resource for sharing Brisbane's CBD with the world.

Thanks nicholas!

As a first-time visitor to Brisbane this past January (2024), I LOVE your city. What's there is amazing and what you've shown coming is even more exciting. Can't wait for my next visit.

[@mailoisback]

Wow! Amazing job putting it all together!

[@melpikos8533]

Appreciate the feedback mailo!

[@MattAboutTown]

Love the drone footage! Looks epic!

[@melpikos8533]

My camera guy knows what he's doing!

[@electro_sykes]

Me and the bros like to call 1 William Street, the "Thick Boy" because of how unusually wide it is. Many people also refer to it as the Tower of Power

[@MrRmano13]

I think its pretty disappointing that Brisbane CBD is limited in height due to the airport radar. Surely with modern technology we can move pass that. Like every other CBD in the world.

[@vinayshsureshram277]

Yes. Melbourne is building skyscrapers non stop and has several buildings taller than 274m and a few over 300m too.

[@vinayshsureshram277]

Sydney is also having this height limit last I checked.

[@LWJCarroll]

Mmm but they may also need to take into account climb and glide performance of various commercial jets which usually adhere to standard climb and glide slope angles. Fyi. Laurie. NZ.

[@paulfri1569]

Agree 💯 almost like it's a ploy to squeeze Brisbane 🤔😏😏

[@BillyMillion]

That isn’t disappointing. Sky scrapers absolutely destroy skylines. We used to be able to look over the entire city and now enormous building are in the way.

[@jesus_built_my_hotrod]

Im working on 360Q. currently building L6 slab.

[@Kianiji18]

11:28 Where is the riverside expressway??

[@stevetyrrell1560]

Queens wharf project will transform the city. Pretty exciting

[@electro_sykes]

and replace the MYER CENTRE

[@newbris]

@@electro_sykes What you mean replace?

[@georgematthews4894]

I was wondering why the height limit is only 274m, cheers

[@paulfri1569]

Need way more density in Spring Hill and Red hill ..

[@dennis771]

I am So confused so there’s no airport radar systems in other cities of the world?

[@vinayshsureshram277]

Nice one! Brisbane still has very few skyscrapers compared to Melbourne and Sydney. I think it will be at least another 10 to 15 years to catch up. Maybe longer but thats how I'd place Brisbane in general - 10 to 15 years behind its big brothers. And the CBD is drastically small compared to the others.

[@melpikos8533]

Brisbane has the smallest geographic footprint of all Australian CBD's, but our Near City market is pretty big! Still a lot of room for growth though which is great.

[@vinayshsureshram277]

@@melpikos8533 agreed! Excited for the future!

[@electro_sykes]

@@melpikos8533 did you cover that MYER CENTRE will be demolished. Plans still finalised, but with MYER Moving out, there are plans already to redevelop the site

[@MrRmano13]

​@@electro_sykesI'm pretty sure the Myer centre is just going to be refurbished to become a Griffith University campus.

[@electro_sykes]

@@MrRmano13 yeah, but it should be demolished in my opinion. The place just sucks and is rundown. Besides, a lot of the MYER Centre shops are already vacant and with MYER moving out, it will only be a matter of time until that craphole is demolished to make way for a new flashy towering development that everyone would actually want to go to.

The Brisbane CBD may not be as big as Melbourne but it has a great skyline. And I have stayed in both the meriton buildings 5 stars in my opinion

[@theindiefilms]

How tall is the Batman building? I like that one

[@melpikos8533]

Gotham City watch out!

[@PurpleGold.]

I’m looking forward to the new Queens warf building

[@damianrose3113]

We must find a way to go higher and work with airport Bne it is stuffing us 👍

[@maddangpo6230]

The first two U/C towers have their heights chopped. Esp 360 Queens St tower, it is not longer 205m tall. So as the 205 Quay tower, it is now 148m tall, so not a skyscraper (technically speaking)

[@saintpauli7566]

What on earth is a 270 meter cap for airport radar? Are there no other cities in the world with skyscrapers taller than that with airports? What a joke.

[@jimmyboy2]

With where technology is today why does airport radar restrict the cbd tower height? Put radar in Highgate Hill and Mt Coottha... do whatever. Lift the limit 😁

[@ARBITRAGEandTIME]

Some of the skyscrapers look interesting and are okay... but I find that the Queens Wharf collection of buildings that offer entertainment do look incredibly corporate looking and it all seems out of place from the natural and relaxed environment of the Brisbane.

[@peterware5173]

Currently living in auckland alone of people say auckland is a super city no auckland city is a dump go see Brisbane city that's a real super city I'm moving back soon.

[@conorchristmas6844]

I think 205 North Quay is shorter now? I think it’s about 148m tall now. Disappointing cause it’s very beautiful. Same with 360 Queen Street that was meant to be much taller and it’s a beautiful design too. If you follow Brisbane developments like I do Brisbane consistently disappoints everything is always revised and downgraded with many exceptions to that though but still 😢

brisbane is getting RUINED

[@robertdoyle1624]

Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah

[@MattGuttormsen]

Queens Wharf is such a mistake, forever the revenue will not benefit Brisbanes locals with OS interested pockets being filled
