Street scene showing the intersection of Brunswick Street and Wickham Street. There are buildings on both sides of the street and horsedrawn vehicles travelling through both streets. A Brisbane Tram is turning the corner and people are strolling in the streets. Small children are standing under the verandah of a shop ca 1905.
It would be interesting to calculate how many times I waited for a bus on Brunswick Street only to be frustrated and start to walk to my destination. Then three buses will pass me by or how many times I have walked up and down this iconic street.
I have walked up on hot days, cold days, windy days and rainy days. I have walked early, evening and late at night. Walked coming home from my Sizzler job or in the days when I went clubbing or 'playing' at the Den.
I have seen this street in all kinds of incarnations and times of day. Brunswick Street has changed and stayed the same. I remember walking home from my night fill job at Coles at midnight and the 'pros' saying hi and asking how was your night.
You see a lot of interesting people a you walk up and down this street. People going to work, people doing the one night stand walk of shame home, homeless people, students. The list goes on and on.
