Build a new city hall with bell tower and clocks. Use St. Mark's Cathedral in Venice as your inspiration for the tower, and 'Big Ben' in London as your inspiration for the clocks. Instantly, Brisbane got iconic value for its million-pound investment. Early in the 20th century, the source of Australia's identity was 10,000 miles away. [2006]
I think that there are a lot of OTHER iconic features in Brisbane and not just the clock tower! It's one of the nicer more historical ones, but surely not the ONLY one by miles!
