A development has been submitted to Brisbane City Council by Vicinity Centres for the refurbishment of The Queens Plaza, located along Brisbane’s Queen Street Mall, reports brisbanedevelopment.com.au.

Blight Rayner, the architecture firm in charge of the project design said the most noticeable change will be to the exterior of the building with a ‘lightweight’ glass awning installed to create a lightness in the appearance. There will also be cosmetic changes to the façade of the building.

Other features of the proposal include a new media screen to be positioned fronting Queen Street, and a new bar which would include 355 square metres of space with a new balcony which would overlook the mall beneath and would include a subtropical arbor.

The internal tenancy layout will be altered, as well as widening of the void that looks down onto level one, with some retail tenancies to be expanded.

Queens Plaza was constructed in 2005 and is home to over 60 high-end retailers and specialty retail stores. Coles and David Jones are the anchor tenants of the popular building.
