Re: News & Discussion: Trams
As part of the ACCs new city plan they are advocating for a city loop as part of their strategy 6. https://meetings.cityofadelaide.com.au/mgChooseDocPack.aspx?ID=938 So they should kick a few dollars into this instead of relying on state government funding. ACC seems to be quite capable of assertin...

Looks far less cramped than the Rundle Mall store thankfully. How large is the store?

Hallelujah! I've had more near misses at that slip lane then anywhere else in the city.whatstheirnamesmom wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2024 10:04 amAlso shown is the removal of the Vic Dr slip lane and how that area will now be used for bikes to transition across to the east or continue around to the new shared path to the north.

Re: News & Discussion: Cycling
Not sold on the flexy posts, and don't know why it's taken years and years for that to be the solution. But I guess it at least stops drivers stopping in the bike lane like they do now. Is there anything in the plans to have a proper connection between the bikeway and the linear path (that isn't car...

One good thing to come out of this is push back on façadism as a way of maintaining heritage. Wearing the old building as a skin, and gutting everything past 30cm deep has always felt like such a minimum effort approach, and implies that heritage is about what something looks like on the surface and...

The Cranker is also an important venue for bands starting off. No one goes from practicing in a garage to selling out shows at Thebarton Theatre, or even The Gov or Lion Arts. The types of venues with suitable size stages and an audience for starting artists has diminished to a very small number an...

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
Out of all the buildings in that area, the Intercontinental is the only building in my opinion that has aged the best. If its re-clad or repainted, it will only age quicker and require more maintenance. A good clean is all it needs but I do fear with its upcoming refurbishment that it will be turne...

It's also not a great idea to be lining a busy pedestrian route with trees which have an awful habit of randomly dropping branches (last night I narrowly avoided one on the linear path near the Par 3 carpark entrance). Surely there are other natives we can plant that aren't gum trees.

Not to mention that the facade was the least of the problems. They haven't even touched the mess that is the escalator layout.

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
The article touches on light access, but there's also the issue of services — particularly plumbing — as well as differences in ceiling heights. The sentiment is good, but the reality is very few office buildings are suitable for retrofitting into residential.
