In recent years, living in Brisbane CBD has allowed residents to experience a city that has emerged from the shadows of its southern cousins, Sydney and Melbourne. While the district remains a hub of government and corporate activity, lately the city is accruing a collection of impressive bars, pubs, eateries, and community markets. The city centre once served solely as a business precinct, but today it has come to encapsulate the state’s booming cultural expansion. Eating and drinking establishments are infiltrating the CBD’s borders to accommodate the Sunshine State’s burgeoning population and cosmopolitan expectations.
