Brisbane has had an undersupply of public green space and sport and recreation areas for a long […]

About Park It

Park IT (Park in Toowong Community Group) is a local community group fighting to create a park on the last river side site available in Toowong.

The old ABC site is 15,000 square meters, flood prone with a river frontage of approximately 130 metres.  It is the ideal site for a river side park.

The community has been lobbying for many years for this parkland.  They were encouraged to believe that the Brisbane City Council and the State Government were working towards that goal.  By keeping up community pressure we can still achieve a wonderful park to be enjoyed for many generations to come.
