Everything about Queen Street Mall Brisbane totally explained
The
Queen Street Mall is a
mall in the centre of
Brisbane,
Queensland,
Australia. Originally a part of
Queen Street, the mall was closed to traffic in
1982 and several facilities in the mall, including
Wintergarden and
The Myer Centre, have opened since then. The mall also underwent refurbishment in
1999 and in
2005 the mall saw the opening of the new flagship
David Jones store which replaced a previous one situated next to it.
The mall, in essence, is a long pedestrian way to connect the two major department stores, David Jones (north) and Myer (south).
The mall's name is based on the street that it resides on, Queen Street, which in turn was named after
Queen Victoria. Queen Street ends at the
Victoria Bridge. The mall attracts 26 million visitors a year.
The Queen Street Mall is lined with retail outlets and smaller
shopping malls, including the
Wintergarden,
Broadway on the Mall,
QueensPlaza,
Brisbane Arcade and
The Myer Centre.
Beneath the Queen Street Mall and The Myer Centre is the
Queen Street Bus Station.
Management of the mall is covered by The Local Government (Queen Street Mall) Act, a
state government act, which also originally granted the
Queensland Police specific powers within the confines of the mall. However, these powers have been repealed with the introduction of the
Police Powers and Responsibilities Act.
