Help save ANZAC Park Toowong from becoming a construction workforce car park for Brisbane City Council's 'Legacy Way'. In October 2010 BCC proposed the site. On 10 December 2010 we filed in the Supreme Court of Queensland an application for an injunction. On 16 December 2010 the 'Coordinator-General's Change Report' refused the proposal for the car park. In February 2011 BCC returned with two options to destroy the park-ANZAC Park North and the Dog off-leash area. On 5 April 2011...SAVED!

Friends of ANZAC Park Toowong – History Group
If you are a local, state, national, world history enthusiast interested in researching ANZAC Park, Wool Street, Toowong and Ada Park, Mt Coot-tha Road, Toowong, with fresh eyes from the ground up, please email our History Group to nominate yourself as a History Group Supporter. We already have some great locals interested, including a qualified historian, a publisher, IT experts, a librarian, and many more. Take link - Image: Rifle training in Anzac Park, Toowong, Brisbane, ca. 1912. Image sourced from Picture Queensland, State Library of Queensland. This image is free of copyright restrictions. We will publish ANZAC Park - The True Story. We now have three statutory declarations from locals who witnessed ashes being scattered in the park, and more on the way. We will also apply to have the park listed on the Queensland Heritage Register so that it will have more statutory protection. The park is on the BCC Heritage Register to protect it but BCC are ignoring this inconvenient fact at the moment. If you have any primary source documents or photos connected with the history of ANZAC Park and Ada Park please contact us. Email: saveanzacpark@gmail.com
