Why everyone should experience living in Fortitude Valley
There are not many places as unique as Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley.
The social heart of Brisbane, Fortitude Valley combines all of the city’s best bars and clubs with a diverse line-up of live music venues, restaurants and cafes, boutique shopping, art and culture.
The Valley is also home to many commercial office spaces with some of Brisbane’s largest employers positioned here, making it a popular employment hub.
Less than 2km to the CBD, 2km to New Farm Park and Roma Street Parklands, 1km to Howard Smith Wharves and 500 metres to James Street, Fortitude Valley is easily one of Brisbane’s most walkable neighbourhoods, meaning residents can ditch the car and opt to walk or catch public transport instead.
All of these elements combined make this the ideal suburb to call home if you’re looking for a laid back, well-connected and social lifestyle.

Although there’s plenty to do in Fortitude Valley, where this neighbourhood really shines is in its hidden laneways!
