I have actually met Simon Crooks on several occasions as part of Brisbane Open House events relating to the Queen’s Wharf project, for which Crooks was project director. Each time, he came across as a very approachable person who was extremely passionate about the QW project (he personally was involved in tours of Destination Brisbane Consortium’s Old Printing Office HQ, and gave short public talks about the project personally). I would even go as far as say that his passion for the project probably played a part in being able to get the damn thing built in the end, in spite of The Star’s troubles.
I think he’s a good choice for GIICA.
