Brisbane news live: Luxury high-rises atop Kangaroo Point hit milestone
Latest posts Inner-city clifftop skyscraper trio reach construction milestone By A set of three 14-storey luxury skyscrapers perched atop the Kangaroo Point cliffs has 'topped out' this week, with crews completing the final structural works on its top floor. The three-tower Skye residences complex sits along River Terrace, in Kangaroo Point, with developer Pikos touting the structure as a 'jewel in the crown of the company's 37-year history'. The complex contains 69 residences, including 64 three-bedroom apartments, four penthouses and one 'super penthouse'. Pikos Group chief executive Michelle Wooldridge said the project would bring 'a new level of luxury' to Brisbane. The buildings' interiors are set to be decked out before the estimated opening date in September, with units already selling from $4.35 million to $5.95 million. 6.50am Weather into the weekend The week draws to a close with another mild day forecast for Brisbane, the bureau predicting a top temperature of 25 degrees on a mostly sunny day. And the conditions are expected to stretch over the weekend and into early next week – although the temperature could be a little warmer than the typical late May days. Here's how the next seven days should pan out: 6.48am While you were sleeping Here's what's making news further afield this morning: Jim Chalmers' plan to raise extra tax out of superannuation funds with more than $3 million will hit hundreds of thousands of young people while enticing them to sink more cash into trusts, one of the country's leading tax experts has warned. The Coalition's break-up has been downgraded to a break after just 48 hours. If the Liberals and Nationals reunite, they have the ABC to thank. Three people have been killed and police hold 'grave fears' for another reported missing as the northern NSW flood disaster intensified, leading to mass evacuations in more than a dozen towns. Kmart has begun trialling a new layout that brings clothing and beauty to the front of the store, in an effort to maximise sales and lure Gen Z and Gen Alpha shoppers into becoming lifelong customers. Two Israeli embassy workers have been shot dead outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC, in a major international incident that is likely to have widespread ramifications in the fight against antisemitism. And these are the best hotels in the world, according to the experts.
