The Queensland Investment Corporation will shape Brisbane’s Cross River Rail masterplans after being appointed as precinct developer.
The state-owned company will develop the land above the Roma Street, Boggo Road, Woolloongabba and Albert Street stations.
The stations will play a key role in the 2032 Olympics with their precincts strategically located near?major venues, including The Gabba and Brisbane Arena.
QIC global real estate managing director Michael O’Brien said they were proud to take on the role.
“This is an unprecedented opportunity for QIC to work with the Queensland Government, Cross River Rail Development Authority and EDQ to refine the masterplans for the above-ground sites with the goal of providing Brisbane with a connected city-shaping lifestyle, residential and commercial precincts,” O’Brien said.
