Room SO5 2.04 QCA Lecture Theatre and Gallery, Lecture Theatre, Queensland College of Art and Design, Griffith University South Bank Campus• 226 Grey Street , South Brisbane, 4101 AU
So just found out today about these sustainability tours of Heritage Lanes building and precinct at 80 Ann Street in Brisbane which is the first in the world to achieve a 6 Star Green Star. Apparently has some amazing tech for cooling the building etc. The sustainability tour is on Tuesdays 11am - so will take some planning ahead with annual leave for me to go on one but I definitely will. Also has a public art collection. Anyway I though it may interest
Interesting. The ACF has offices in that building. Penny and I went in for a meeting and I realised that the building is on the site where I used to work in the 1970s. I was puzzled by the history page where they say it used to be a market and wondered if I was remembering wrongly but eventually found evidence of my old building at 62-80 Ann Street. https://archive.sclqld.org.au/qjudgment/2001/ICQ01-020.pdf
Interesting omission. Now I know why they didn't retain any of the old building but I guess a building where people are exposed to asbestos and secondary cigarette smoking doesn't fit their storyline. How things have changed. Must go on a tour.
