ISLAND BUILDING ACTIVITY

 While the normally busy Scallywags cafe (above )  on  Magnetic  Island  has closed down for its annual  break ,  new  ventures  are  underway . In  a few  weeks , a prefabricated  building is expected to  arrive from  Brisbane  to  provide two  commercial  offices on  a  location at  the corner of  Kelly and  Sooning  Streets , where  trees  were recently cleared . It  is  near the  Nelly Bay Foodworks   shopping centre ,  across  the  road  from  the  medical  centre

There is  also talk  that a  Melbourne developer has plans for  the  Picnic  Bay  arcade  which  includes adding  another  floor  to the  building and a boutique brewery  . The  mini  golf course  at  Nelly Bay  and  associated  shop  is   nearing   completion .

The former bakery at Nelly Bay  is being  fitted  out  for the much bigger  Vinnies  op shop and should be open in a week or so.
