On a mission to get photos of a doomed battleship we squeezed a fence, crossed a paddock, slipped through a junkyjard, braved the rocky waterline, fell over a fence and stalked through the long grass. We never made it to the battleship but found this boat which in retrospect has much more character. 4m f8 iso100

After dark the city is ours.
From secret tunnels to rancid sewers, subways, bridges and space relics, if it's adventure you want you'll find it here. The city is our playground, the city as you've never seen it before.

I can't quite work out where this is... Somewhere out towards the Port o' Brisbane?

South side of the river on the Western side of a big ship yard. It's a long roundabout walk to get there, but well worth it.

I'll definitely give it a look. FYI, the remaining gasometer in Newstead is close to filled-in now (they're incorporating its frame into the new development), and the rest of the site is just a jigsaw of excavated dirt. The exposed red brick drain that runs through the site is still there, but sections appear to have been replaced with concrete pipe fairly recently. Homesick yet?

All the best stuff in Brisbane is dying, Tennyson, Newstead, West End gasometers... such is life in a booming city. Hmm so they're still working on the drain. They've been fucking with it on and off for the past couple of years. First time I got in was through a giant hole in the street further upstream where they replaced the brick with giant concrete square triplets and a junction room. Funny thing is the third triplet tunnel goes nowhere... upstream OR downstream.

Well, I made it out there earlier this evening, but the boat is gone... Interestingly, though, you can still see it on Google Earth, if you look carefully enough...
