Profile 
Central Brisbane has undergone extensive redevelopment in the relatively recent past due largely to the increased demand to live in the city. The redevelopment of King George Square, Queen Street Mall and Queens Plaza has lured more people than ever into the city.
Although Brisbane’s central business hub, the area has an active community presence and is a safe, inviting area which accommodates one of Queensland’s most diverse multi cultural communities.
The thriving Chinatown with fabulous restaurants, popular nightclubs, bars and The Judith Wright Centre, it’s easy to see why young people would be attracted to the lifestyle.

Eating, drinking and shopping
