Brisbane Is Being Rebuilt — But What Is It Becoming?
Greater Brisbane is being rebuilt around us, but are the developments, public spaces and homes emerging across the region taking the shape we want? Waterfront Brisbane’s expected completion has slipped to late 2029, adding another year to a project that began with a 2027 target. Meanwhile, part of Albert Street has re-emerged as a leafy pedestrian boulevard after nearly 7 years behind construction fences, and Brisbane’s median 1-bedroom apartment price has climbed to $670,000 - just $15,000 below Sydney’s. We also examine plans to reshape Mowbray Park and change how King George Square is operated, along with new filming rules prompted by camera-equipped smart glasses at Brisbane’s public pools. There are updates on the CityCat industrial dispute and scrutiny surrounding BMD’s early-works contract for Brisbane’s new Olympic stadium. In the Redlands, new renders reveal what Redland City Council promises for the Birkdale Community Precinct, but an unpublished audit, undisclosed operating projections and an environmental reconsideration leave significant questions unanswered. We also look at why Logan City Council is re-examining its controversial flood maps. What do you think about the direction Greater Brisbane is taking? Let me know in the comments.

Brisbane's Biggest Riverfront Transformation is Coming.
Channel Sponsors: 🎨 YB Painting https://www.ybpainting.com.au/thebrisbanechannel/ 🧠 Excel Psychology https://www.excelpsychology.com.au Queensland has handed down its second budget since the election, with billions of dollars committed to infrastructure, housing, schools and transport. But with a record construction pipeline now planned, the big question is whether the state can actually deliver it all. This week, we take a closer look at what the budget means for Greater Brisbane, including permanent 50-cent public transport fares, water and electricity bills, new infrastructure, housing, and the challenges of finding enough workers to build and staff the projects now on the drawing board. We also explore the proposed transformation of Brisbane's former Visy glass factory site into what some are already calling a "new South Bank", the planned revitalisation of Uptown Brisbane, and why Greater Brisbane's rapid growth is creating opportunities—and challenges—for the future. In this week's My Two Cents, I take you behind the scenes of how I investigated one of the political claims surrounding Queensland's permanent 50-cent fares, following the evidence wherever it led and explaining why fact-checking isn't always as straightforward as it first appears.

Brisbane Is Being Reimagined—but Who Is It For?
Brisbane’s familiar places are being reconsidered—but how will the changes work for the people who live here? This week on THE Brisbane Weekly, Toombul’s proposed return and new plans for Wintergarden sit alongside 397 approved Milton apartments with no resident parking. We look at what those changes could offer, the practical questions they raise, and whether steady asking rents and cheaper granny-flat charges offer some breathing room. There are also new Olympic and Paralympic emblems, stadium ambitions, changing flood-planning maps and questions about the systems people rely on for safety and a stable home. Plus, the government’s Victim Assist response, where our other enquiries stand, Powderfinger’s reunion—and a challenge for THE Brisbane Channel’s trivia team. 🤝 SPONSORS Thanks to TerraFuse and YB Painting Services for supporting this edition.

Is the Powderfinger Reunion Happening? JC told me NO, then THIS happened...
Is iconic Brisbane band Powderfinger getting back together? Mysterious billboards in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne—and a cryptic Instagram account—have fans searching for clues. Before this campaign appeared, I asked founding member John “JC” Collins directly about the possibility of a reunion. In this video, hear his answer and join me at the James Street billboard to examine the Powderfinger connections hidden in plain sight. From the Riverstage farewell date to The Return of the Electric Horsemen, the clues point towards the band. But what exactly are they teasing? The interview excerpt was recorded before the billboard campaign and is not JC’s response to the current speculation. Would you want to see Powderfinger back on stage? Have you spotted something in the code that we’ve missed? Let me know in the comments—and see how many song references you can catch in the video.

Brisbane's Big Decisions are Hitting Home
The Story Bridge will close to ordinary road traffic for up to three weeks this summer — and tolls on alternative routes won’t be waived. What could that mean for the 100,000 vehicles that normally cross it each day? This week, we look at what major decisions mean once they reach everyday life: Brisbane home values falling from their peak, Victim Assist’s total payments dropping as claims rise, the uncertain rollout of Thriving Kids in Queensland, the impacts of a proposed Swanbank data centre, and who pays for the infrastructure needed by a new community at Southern Thornlands. We also visit one of Brisbane’s oldest surviving buildings as it goes up for sale, check the latest world university rankings, congratulate the Brisbane Lions on their three-peat, and examine the likely builder and still-unknown final price of Brisbane Stadium. Then there’s the Brisbane 2032 emblem reveal… which didn’t quite go according to plan. 🤝 SPONSORS 🧠 Excel Psychology Finding the right psychologist can feel like a difficult first step.

Brisbane's Plans Are Starting to Meet Reality | THE Brisbane Weekly 38
Queensland Rail now has a timeframe for restoring South East Queensland’s full train timetable — but several other transport projects are facing much less certain futures. This week, we look at why the proposed Airtrain buyback never reached a vote, whether rebuilding Holmview Station makes sense with just 88 average daily boardings, how far the Coomera Connector could realistically reach before 2032, and why some Brisbane bus passengers are still waiting without shelters or seats. Then we dig into the growing practical challenges around Brisbane 2032: Queensland’s reported 11,000-room hotel shortfall isn’t quite what some headlines suggest, accessible accommodation remains a major issue, the Gabba is growing a new wicket for Brisbane Stadium, and Rockhampton’s Fitzroy River has passed a major technical test for Olympic rowing — although some significant questions are still unresolved. Also this week: Thriving Kids and what it could mean for families of children with autism or developmental delay, an alleged cash-for-demerit-points scheme involving more than 1,200 infringements, new guidance around AI-edited real-estate photos, Redland City Council’s vehicle-fleet audits, answers about Wyllie Park and Cleveland–Redland Bay Road, changes to Queensland road laws, and whether Brisbane’s nightlife really is improving.

Brisbane’s Next Growth Wave Is Going UP
Brisbane is being asked to grow up—literally—as plans for much taller neighbourhoods move forward while transport, services and household budgets try to keep pace. This week, we unpack what proposed 50-storey height limits in Bowen Hills could actually deliver, along with separate changes around Carindale, Indooroopilly and Nundah. We also examine why Queensland’s $750,000 price cap may put a $30,000 grant beyond the reach of many first-home buyers, who’ll be allowed to use Moreton Bay’s new campground for people experiencing homelessness, and what two very different council financial headlines really tell us. There’s also Queensland’s credit-rating downgrade, Brisbane’s $15 million AI traffic-light trial, the push to extend Brisbane Metro to Capalaba, major school-holiday rail closures and a new international departure area at Brisbane Airport. Which of these changes do you think will have the greatest effect on life across Greater Brisbane?

Can Brisbane Deliver on Its Big Plans? | Greater Brisbane Update
Can Brisbane keep up with its own ambitions? The Queensland Government has selected five development groups to deliver almost 2,200 homes at Northshore Hamilton—but there’s no requirement for affordable housing or completion before 2032. In this Greater Brisbane update, we also examine concerns about Brisbane library staffing, international opposition to holding Olympic rowing on Rockhampton’s Fitzroy River, and plans allowing hotels of up to 12 storeys on suburban pub sites. Other stories include the Supreme Court decision quashing Brisbane City Council’s findings against Councillor Trina Massey, the $30 million Queen’s Wharf rates dispute, criticism of the Victoria Park legacy consultation, police raids connected with alleged construction-industry corruption, Cross River Rail’s 80-tonne “Esky Lid”, parking enforcement, industrial action and major proposals across Logan, Ipswich and the Redlands. We also return to questions raised in the previous update—including the answers received and those that remained unanswered.

Greater Brisbane: Big Decisions, Unanswered Questions
Queensland is preparing to buy up to 630 new diesel buses, replacing the former zero-emission procurement policy and prompting questions about long-term costs, pollution and whether electric suppliers should’ve been allowed to compete. In this Greater Brisbane update, we also cover the Riverfire ferry strike, new e-bike and e-scooter rules, the push for 50-cent Airtrain fares and three Brisbane 2032 controversies, including the decision to withhold rejected stadium designs. We unpack falling Brisbane home values, conflicting Social Housing Register figures and four developments proposed within a small part of South Brisbane and West End. Later, we examine two very different youth-justice bills, concerns about Queensland’s new child-protection watchdog, children living outside approved care placements and allegations that community organisations fear losing funding if they criticise government policy. We finish with the Logan West Upgrade, the Gardner Road extension, a new memorial garden in the Redlands and Akers Road Park in Lawnton.

Getting to Riverfire: Ferry Strike, Free Travel and Bus Changes
Brisbane’s CityCats and all six inner-city and cross-river ferry routes are currently expected to stop operating on Riverfire day, with workers planning a 24-hour strike from 4am on Saturday, September 5. This video covers which services are affected, the extra buses and trains being provided, important post-fireworks route changes, where free travel will apply and what is behind the ongoing dispute between ferry workers and RiverCity Ferries. The situation could change at short notice, so check the official Translink information again before beginning your journey.

Brisbane Is Being Rebuilt — But What Is It Becoming?
Greater Brisbane is being rebuilt around us, but are the developments, public spaces and homes emerging across the region taking the shape we want? Waterfront Brisbane’s expected completion has slipped to late 2029, adding another year to a project that began with a 2027 target. Meanwhile, part of Albert Street has re-emerged as a leafy pedestrian boulevard after nearly 7 years behind construction fences, and Brisbane’s median 1-bedroom apartment price has climbed to $670,000 - just $15,000 below Sydney’s. We also examine plans to reshape Mowbray Park and change how King George Square is operated, along with new filming rules prompted by camera-equipped smart glasses at Brisbane’s public pools. There are updates on the CityCat industrial dispute and scrutiny surrounding BMD’s early-works contract for Brisbane’s new Olympic stadium. In the Redlands, new renders reveal what Redland City Council promises for the Birkdale Community Precinct, but an unpublished audit, undisclosed operating projections and an environmental reconsideration leave significant questions unanswered. We also look at why Logan City Council is re-examining its controversial flood maps. What do you think about the direction Greater Brisbane is taking? Let me know in the comments.

Brisbane After Dark: What Needs to Change Before 2032? | J.C. Collins
What should Brisbane feel like after dark—and what needs to change before the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games? Adam sits down with John “J.C.” Collins, Queensland’s first Nightlife Economy Commissioner, whose experience includes touring the world with Powderfinger and operating Brisbane venues including The Triffid and Fortitude Music Hall. They discuss why the nighttime economy extends well beyond bars and clubs, what J.C. heard while consulting across Queensland, the pressures threatening grassroots music venues, outdated regulation and liquor licensing, late-night trading and public transport, safety and connectivity between precincts, and the opportunity to develop a distinctly Brisbane nightlife experience before 2032. This conversation was recorded in the green room at The Triffid. As it is a working live music venue, you will occasionally hear some background noise. This is the public version of the podcast. YouTube channel members can watch the extended conversation, which includes more on the practical regulatory obstacles facing venues, the different nighttime economies J.C. encountered across Queensland, and his fuller assessment of how further reform could be progressed.

Smaller Blocks, Taller Towers. Change is here!
Brisbane’s housing market has recorded its second consecutive monthly fall—just as Brisbane City Council approves major planning changes allowing some lots as small as 120 square metres. A separate draft plan could bring towers of up to 30 storeys to Upper Mount Gravatt. But creating development capacity doesn’t guarantee that new homes will actually be built, or that supporting infrastructure will keep pace. This Greater Brisbane update also examines Ballymore’s next redevelopment and its still-undisclosed cost, the federal reconsideration process affecting the Birkdale whitewater centre, rapid growth in Brisbane Metro patronage, continuing train and ferry disruption, e-scooters dumped in the Brisbane River and improving hospital figures. There are also updates on the Cowboys’ proposed 100-pokie venue in Logan, unanswered questions about Meadowbrook housing, the Wyllie Park camping trial, The Bluey Movie and two developing stories on youth justice and mental-health care.
