The Teachers' Training College at 1.17, was formal the Domestic Science High School (Girls). It became the KGCAE (Kelvin Grove College of Advanced Education) then the BCAE (Brisbane CAE) and is now QUT (Queensland University of Technology). It still provides teacher education, but the campus covers an enormous area compared with when I attended in the 1960s and 70s.
These always bring tears to my eyes. Time goes so fast and things were much better in so many ways back then. Truly our lives are but a vapour. Here today, gone tomorrow. Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. James 4:14
French Rugby Players on a balcony on the Albert Hotel, next to the Tivoli Theatre, opposite City Hall. All those buildings were demolished to make way for King George Square...and the eyesore we see today. No one gives a flying fox about King George, but they killed our heritage buildings anyway. So sad.
It's now called the frying pan because of the Teflon looking grey slate stone. And there's a huge tv screen permanently on which just seems to play non stop adverts with the sound on loud. What a horrific space our stupid town planners have created.
At 4.08 -House in the suburbs 1954- is a picture of Josh Griffins house on Upfield St Burbank must've been a Courier Mail story of him being a builder and built a lot of homes with his brother. I have this print with the Courier Mail reference number on the back. My parents bought the picture as the Griffens were good friends in Mt Gravatt
Whenever I watch these videos, they are wonderful by the way, I often wonder, if, like the young girls at 5:27, who look to be no more than 7 or 8, if they are still alive.

Little trip through the back years. Thanks.

Wow these photographs were taken in a time and place of much innocence, hope and inspiration. Thank you for sharing ❤
Very nostalgic as l am a Brit living in France it reminds me of the U.K. In the fifties especially the elderly ladies.
Excellent; but only after reducing the playback speed to 50%, and then muting the music.

The original King George Square had lawns and fountains and was lovely.
The current abomination is a fiasco.

❤️ they’ve just about destroyed it ..
diversity destroys everything.
White Lands need to remain in White Hands
When live was so much better, and cars didn't dent if you lent on them
It looks like McPhail St. Zillmere - where the housing commission homes are.

A great video but you could have slowed it down a whole lot more
