South Bank Grand Arbour

The structure functions as a pedestrian walkway which connects the Griffith Film School on the corner of Dock Street and Vulture Street to the Cultural Forecourt adjacent to QPAC, as well as the rest of the South Bank Parklands through which it runs.

[2] The arbour was designed by Melbourne-based architectural firm Denton Corker Marshall,[3] and was officially opened in 2000.

One of the hired boiler makers/welders was called Michael Gray, a well known boilermaker in Queensland and New South Wales.

[4] The structure is composed of 443 steel tendrils up to ten metres high, supporting a luxuriant canopy of purple Bougainvillea.
