Hi all. At last, some concrete fact about the impending loss of the National Archives' facility at 996 Wynnum Road, Cannon Hill. I urge you to turn to page 36 of today's issue of "The Courier-Mail" (bottom right-hand corner in the Property Section). There you will see the photo advertisement for the auction (placed by CB Richard Ellis) that states: "Australian Archive Building, Brisbane: 996 Wynnum Road, Cannon Hill. Under instructions from the Commonwealth of Australia". Under a truly impressive photo of the site, we find out that it is: <quote> - fully leased - Superbly located - 1.6 hectare site - 6 radial klms to Brisbane CBD approx. - Close to rail, bus and shopping centre - Adjoins major corporate estate - Lease: 3 years and 3 months+ 2 x 2 year options from 1 July 1999 - Net income: $574,791 p.a. approx.
