UNLOCKED

June 17, 2010 – 10:21 pm

a group of about twenty AILA members toured the nearly completed Boggo Road Urban Village at Dutton Park with Project Designers Stephen White and Dominic Powell (Tract) with the intention being to gain an understanding of the design challenges arising from the conversion of a historical gaol precinct into a contempory transport–orientated research and commercial hub.This development is being project-managed by the Department of Public Works, on behalf of the Queensland Government.

The Boggo Road Urban Village will be a unique, mixed-use area including residential, retail, commercial, environmental research and recreational facilities. Its aim is to connect people to the future, the past, our city and each other.
