Peter Eedy said:
This subdivision was likely earlier than the 1890s, as the 'Undue Subdivision of Land Prevention Act 1885' (enacted late 1885) required that lots be no smaller than 16 perches (405 sq m) - these 'Pineapple' lots are 12 perches each 28 March fell on a Saturday in 1885 (and in 1874 - with a leap year in between) - so the estate map is probably from 1885

I believe this is a bend of the Brisbane River at Kangaroo Point. The Customs House would be a little further along to the right of the tall building in this view.

Anni [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Hi all, the captioning on this image is incorrect thank you for alerting us to it. It definitely does not depict the 1893 floods and our records say the photograph was taken between 1890 and the 1930s. Thanks for your compliments quasymody, we really are blushing. :P Thank you again for all your fantastic research and thanks also to Artist-with-camera.
