Construction on Elizabeth Quay is well underway.

The Quay, carved out of a grassy park which itself had formerly been reclaimed from the Swan River, is one of two massive public works (the Perth City Link being the other) aimed at reinvigorating Perth’s CBD.

Elizabeth Quay is slated for completion by the spring of 2015.
