A lovely, spacious oasis in the middle of the city..

The Roma St Gardens have a special significance to our family. My Mum worked as a tracer for The Brisbane City Council. She helped draw up the plans for the development of this park - way back in about 1940 when it was all done by hand. I actually still have all of her pens and tools and some examples of her work... :)
