The Brisbane central business district (CBD), or 'the City' is located on a peninsula on the northern bank of the Brisbane River. The triangular shaped peninsula is bounded by the Brisbane River to the east, south and west. The peninsula slopes upward to the north-west where 'the city' is bounded by parkland and the inner city suburb of Spring Hill. The City is bounded by the north-east by the suburb of Fortitude Valley.

The City is laid out according to a grid pattern surveyed during the city's early colonial days, a feature typical of most Australian street patterns. As a general rule, the streets aligned northwest-south east are named after male members of the House of Hanover, while the northeast-south west aligned streets are named after female members. Queen Street is the central roadway. It forms the pivotal axis for the grid of roads within the district.

The City contains many tall office buildings occupied by corporations and government departments. The areas around the Queen Street Mall and Adelaide Street is primarily a retail precinct. A legal precinct exists around the various court buildings located around the intersections of George Street and Adelaide and Ann Streets.
