TL;DR: Announcement of a new Brisbane City Council initiative to improve local parks, a police search for a man connected to several stabbings in Brisbane, and the diagnosis of the first professional female athlete with CTE. There have also been a major milestone for a popular restaurant.

Recently they put in a small play area (swings, slide, etc) into a random empty block of land, and suddenly it's full of families

Our neighbourhood is already full of kids and families. We're all over the road every afternoon and we've had to make our own playground with marketplace equipment in an empty space. Luckily the few neighbours without kids are onboard.
