A record of field trips and other explorations of a particular urban design element - the internal reserve - a 'pocket park' surrounded on all sides by residential housing but accessible by pedestrian pathways from the street. They are exclusive, secluded, sometimes neglected, sometimes celebrated, suburban spaces. This blog welcomes contributions: comments, images, memorabilia. Please email nicholsd@unimelb.edu.au

Coorparoo, Brisbane, Australia, 2002
These pictures were taken in June 2002, of an unnamed internal reserve in Coorparoo in Brisbane's inner south-east. Much of Coorparoo dates from the early 20th century but I have not been able to find any material on this particular reserve.
