## Resource

Brisbane’s Queen Street Mall is set for a dramatic makeover as developers plan to demolish parts of the Wintergarden complex—including its iconic butterfly facade—and rebuild with a sleeker, modern design. The project aims to connect Queen Street and Elizabeth Street with two new retail floors beneath the InterContinental Hotel, introducing a fresh mix of shops and revitalizing the city’s premier shopping hub. While the hotel’s main floors and one mall section will stay intact, the steel butterfly screens will be replaced with restored and enhanced architecture. Plans also include a new hotel entrance on Elizabeth Street and potential new office, hotel, and residential spaces on the former Regent Theatre site. Still in proposal stage, this ambitious redevelopment could reshape Brisbane’s downtown skyline and retail scene.
