Water slides, an Indigenous history museum, and a massive car park are the latest community ideas for the Victoria Park golf complex in Brisbane’s heart.
Brisbane City Council plans to permanently close the golf course and turn it into a 45-hectare park.
This Sunday, the council will close the complex to host a free Victoria Park party to encourage residents to share their ideas.
The Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner said this council land is currently used as a pay-and-play public golf course.
“When you think of some of [the] great parklands across the globe, Central Park in New York City, Lumpini Park in Bangkok and Hyde Park in London come to mind for their hundreds of trees, free attractions and for offering people a green sanctuary within a busy capital city," he said.
Brisbane City Council’s public consultation is open for 10 more days.
