Suitability is mostly about personal enjoyment and convenience.
When it comes to suitability it is worth considering:
  • Proximity to your work and social network
  • Access to services including medical centres, hospitals, transport, day care, community centres, schools, universities and shopping centres
  • Proximity to parks, town centres, cultural destinations, places of worship, dining and bar precincts, etc. "

It's a big, empty, adaptable room with plenty of open space around it. The venue is wheelchair accessible and has toilets, power etc, and the rent for non-profit community groups is quite reasonable (depending on how much money your group has, you can negotiate rates as low as $10/hour). Because it's a commercial precinct, there aren't too many nearby residential neighbours, so it'll be a great spot for night-time music events."

The Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) also commented on its value.

“In recent years Woolloongabba has become very attractive to developers, not only for its central location, but also for the historical performance of the residential property market, which has done better than the Brisbane LGA median,” REIQ chief executive officer Antonia Mercorella said.]]> 2017-07-29 03:27:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ntnish_ces/woolloongabba/wish/179671908 Getting to know: Zone Map uniseyunitsu1 https://padlet.com/ntnish_ces/woolloongabba/wish/179707623 Areas in Woolloongabba (residential, community, mixed-use, and commercial areas.
