Street in Kangaroo Point during the construction of the Story Bridge, Brisbane, 1936

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  A decade of building major bridge infrastructure projects in Brisbane cemented Sir Manuel Richard Hornibrook (often known as ‘MR’) as a pioneering Queenslander in the history of the state. A self-starter who built the family business with his brothers, MR gained contracts all along the Brisbane River from wharves to terminals to wool stores and more. The company became known for bridge building and enterprise and gained the biggest contracts offered in the history of the state. The Grey St/William Jolly Bridge, the Hornibrook Highway, and the Story Bridge were all opened between 1932 and 1940, opening up land, business, communication, and connecting people back and forth across a rapidly growing city and across Moreton Bay to Redcliffe from Sandgate. Exactly when was the Story Bridge built? Its construction commenced in 1935 and concluded in 1940 when the bridge opened for the first time to a crowd of 37,000 people.
