UQ and St Lucia at flood peak - 2011 Brisbane Floods

This is the University of Queensland in St Lucia just after the flood waters began receding from a peak of 4.46 metres.
Most of the classrooms and buildings are fine, but it looks like a lot of research was damaged.

@GHOSTIPOD90 nah most of the university itself is fine, it was really just the sports facilities and that area around the carpark that got flooded out

[@chickenisafoolofatoo]

@vinugopan There wasn't that much to recover from; just had to rinse out the sporting sheds and carparks really. The rest of the Uni was unscathed and fully operational all year this year (I study there).
