Brisbane's CBD from the ferry

Here's where I'm going. This photo was taken on the ferry ride from my hotel to the city's downtown, called the CBD, or Central Business District. It was a grey day, the first real rain in some time, so the light isn't wonderful. Looming over the ferry is the Storey Bridge, a major bridge that joins the south bank to the north bank over the Brisbane River.

Brisbane is a river city with a narrowly defined downtown. Most of the tall buildings shown in the photo seem to have been built in the last decade. Many are visually interesting. The city seems to be experimenting with different styles. I'll know more when I get there.
