About this audio guide
This guide to Jan Powers Farmers Markets, set in the forecourt of Brisbane Powerhouse in New Farm, traces the building from a nineteen-twenties tram power station through decades of official disuse. You'll hear who was still supposed to be minding the empty halls, and who actually claimed them once the turbines went quiet. It's a story about what an abandoned industrial building becomes when a city stops watching it for a generation. Look up at the walls around the market stalls while you listen.
