The fifth suburb that I visited back in 2014 was Beard - a suburb that I didn't even know existed at the time. There wasn't much to photograph then, so I was wondering if this had changed...
Beard wasn't established until 2009. Apparently only three people live here....it is also referred to as Fyshwick East Industrial Estate.
Abattoirs operated in Beard from 1944 to 1997, so not somewhere I was overly keen to visit as a vegetarian. But it is now an industrial estate..
Not a lot seems to have changed since I last visit.
It is still a desolate place...which largely seems to be utilised by people doing burnouts...
But at least it has a real suburb sign now, not just the fake one..
There are also some plants and animals trying to survive amidst the industrial landscape...
And the street names are still pretty cool :p
