Summary

Twenty years ago, a Brisbane radio and TV hub sparked panic when a cluster of breast cancer diagnoses forced an evacuation—no cause was ever found, but the fallout shattered lives and reshaped the broadcaster’s future. Now, that same site stands as Monarch Residences, luxury towers selling for millions, built on land cleared of mystery but not memory. Developers swear safety was verified, but the ghosts of the ABC’s abrupt exit linger—reminding Toowong that progress can’t erase the past.
