The article discusses a proposal to allow high-rise apartment towers to be built near Musgrave Park in South Brisbane, which would transform the low cityscape. Residents with “selfish” NIMBY attitudes need to let go and accept sensible new housing options, the article’s author argues. If the proposal is approved, the high-rise apartments would help rejuvenate parts of South Bank Parklands, facing competition from Howard Smith Wharves, New Farm’s James Street and a remodelled Eagle Street. The article also notes that increased housing supply reduces house prices.
