Ferry Terminal


As the access to the site is currently very limited, I decided that I would incorporate a ferry terminal, a space that is both transitional and a destination, that provides a hub of activity in connection to the water.



Currently there are no ferry terminals that service the north bank of the Brisbane River between the Riverside and Sydney Street terminals. As both the CityCat and Inner City Ferry pass right by the site it would be entirely possible to slightly alter these routes to stop by Howard Smith Wharves. The route of the Cross River Ferry could also be extended up to the site making HSW the only place all three of the ferries visit.



The site even has the added advantage of having existing wharves, meaning that to save resources these could just be easily retrofitted to accommodate a ferry terminal.
