Eldon Square War Memorial on St George's Day

from North East Museums

• Freeman Lowell said:

  Wow, totally unrecognisable compared to how it looks today.

• optimal chicken said:

  When the new shopping centre was built they erased a lot of history. Sure there were run down parts but to remove parts of the square was unforgiveable. And not a single long leatther coat in sight!

• Iain said:

  Considering the general uniformity of the public and military, the three ladies off to the left on the grass stand out...

• Andy Millican Photography said:

  It's a disgrace what they did to those buildings.

Garden and view from the front of Montpelier, Bowen Hills, ca. 1927

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Land at the heights of Bowen Hills, which provided fine views and cooling breezes, was eagerly purchased by Brisbane’s wealthier citizens. Substantial houses were built on the hilltop and surrounding slopes, including ‘Cintra House’ (1865), ‘Folkstone’ (the 1860s), and ‘Montpelier’ (1860s). Further subdivisions in the 1870s brought new settlers to the area, again primarily to the elevated sites known as Montpelier Hill or Bowen Hill Crest. Lower-lying land was flood prone and remained poorly developed in the nineteenth century, though some industry was opened along the banks of Breakfast Creek and the Brisbane River.
