When I was a kid in Broadbeach in the mid-60s, the walk from the park to the shore involved heading down a set of about 30 stairs, until the Council began to install wooden fences made of inch-wide palings closely held together by wire, which trapped sand and established the dunes. Every year, a new 5 foot tall fence would go in, just as the top of the old fence was barely peeking out until eventually the beach had risen to present day levels. Genius.

Awesome film ;)
Gold Coast and suburbs had great dual lane highways that facilitated growth now it's built out and congested
From this beauty to concrete jungle sad , I was there , I hate what it is
Was nice place then, sadly its ruined now .
