The ups and down of city life..

Brisbane is built all along the river. Lots of it floods. But people still love living on the river - so high rise apartment blocks keep being built.
Covid and over enthusiastic federal "stimulus packages" have created huge shortages in building supplies and tradesmen.
The inner city high rise with the crane on top was being constructed by a company which has just declared itself bankrupt - unable to meet the requirements of its contracts. It's probably just one of many to come....

Great shot of Brisbane.

It's a familiar story here as well!

What a great shot of a busy city. Hope that things continue to improve.

I wouldn’t be investing in anything off the plans these days, that’s for sure.

Great shot. Sad state of affairs all over.

Like the city scape though

I think that is a problem all over atm. It still is a beautiful skyline.

Nice scene. Covid changed our way of life. Our office buildings are empty.

@sugarmuser How true is that! :)

Thanks so much for all of your replies - it was very interesting to read that so many other areas of the world are also struggling with similar problems as a left over from Covid. Hopefully things will gradually settle down and improve. Thanks, Rob
