Rocklea Industrial Area, April 1965. The Courier-Mail 8 April 1954 INDUSTRIAL SITES DEMAND. Southern firms set up offices and factories ( ) A BIG demand for industrial sites in and around Brisbane has been made in recent weeks by large southern industries and manufacturing firms. Sydney and Melbourne firms which formerly had only a representative in Brisbane are now setting up branch offices, storage rooms, and, in some cases, factories. Real estate agents reported yesterday that already several sales of small sites had been made, while other firms had placed orders for suitable sites. Mr. Alan White, of Ray White Pty Ltd, said yesterday: 'This is one of the most; remarkable trends in real estate we have seen in Brisbane in recent years.' Other agents said the demand was mostly for 24 perch or 32-perch sites in the city for branch offices and despatch and show rooms, and for larger blocks of land or buildings in the outer industrial areas of Rocklea and Eagle Farm for factories and bulk storage.
