Green Hill Reservoir is a pair of reservoirs in Chapel Hill, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Two underground concrete reservoirs, 77 ML (2.7×10^6 cu ft) each, were built in 1968. They are one of the largest potable water reservoirs in Brisbane.[1]

Amenities

The surrounding parkland is an off-leash dog park, but, unusually for Brisbane, it is unfenced.[2][3]

Being located on a local high point, there are views to the Brisbane CBD and across the western suburbs of Brisbane. It is known as Tom Gaffney Lookout.[2]
