A photo I took on December 27th, 2002 at 11:49am.... but where?

I believe its on the northside of Brisbane as we were visiting someone out that way and an hour or two later I took a photo of JB Hifi at Chermside, but buggered if I can work out where this is exactly.

Did a lap down Gympie Road using Google Streetview but its not old enough. Nothing looks exactly right anyway.

COULD have been from the southside as we lived in Mount Gravatt at the time, so really anywhere between there and Chermside'ish via main roads I guess.

Apologies for the photo quality. It was 2002. Digital cameras weren't much chop back then.

I've uploaded the original file (and a few from afterwards which are definitely from the Northside, EXIF data shows they were taken a few hours later) here in case another pixel or two can be gleaned from the original: https://www.palad.in/uploads/aussie.zone/mystery-location-2002/

Is this full resolution? There's a street sign in the background

Unfortunately yes, looks like I was saving them in a pretty low resolution to save space (not that high resolution was much better on those cameras at around the equivalent of 1080p).
