Re: News & Discussion: CBD Retail
Kim Wang's supermarket closing down due to a hike in rents at the Market Plaza. This was inevitable given the type of development going on next door, its going to drive a lot of the independent retailers out. Also Pure Vegetarian in the Market Plaza is closing down in June. Devastated about Pure Ve...

[U/C] Re: Burnside Village (Extension)
Still think the 'dumbing' down of the centre upgrade to exclude a cinema was a bad decision. I know the cinema landscape is shifting with technology and COVID-19, Burnside is just enough out of the way for Wallis Cinemas Mitcham, Hoyts Norwood and Palace Nova East End to have its own regular cliente...

Re: News & Discussion: Low/Mid-Rise CBD Development
Funny, I genuinely had Westpac pegged for this site (or the old Telstra building) as they are also on the hunt for a new CBD premises. Good to see the building will be fully occupied, but it does seem strange that whilst most businesses/organisations strive to centralise their workforce in one locat...

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
Article in today’s Tiser regarding extensive upgrades to the ‘Black Stump’ on Grenfell, apparently upgrades have already been made to the foyer entrance and further internal upgrades are to follow, with a complete upgrade/replacement of the external facade still to come. All part of the new owners v...

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
If they reglazed the apricot cement monstrosity the same glazing as trumps stunted chode, it’d bring the area together nicely Yeah, great - then you could have two gaudy buildings that look straight out of early 90s Vegas, lovely. Hell, even just a decent pressure clean to the top of the InterConti...

live music is going the way of boomers. the kids want to see DJs play recorded music now I'm guessing you haven't been to the Cranker in a while! "The kids" are very much into the live gigs played there. They are in a minority for their generation. Its no accident live venues are going th...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
So let me get this straight, Mount Barker has a population of 40,000 and the state government have rebuked every suggestion of an electrified rail service to the centre, meanwhile Kouts is talking out of his arse about a possible rail service to Riverlea, so long as the population of the area grows ...

[U/C] Re: 145-159 King William Street (GPO) | 61m | 16 Levels | Hotel
I wonder, are they going to replace that awful tin shed roof of the GPO with glass or something that looks better... Where in the world is replacing a roof with glass common practise? No doubt they will replace the iron roof with a new colour bond roof but give them time. Grand Palais in Paris has ...

[COM] Re: Festival Plaza Incl. 115m Tower | $800 million
IMO, this is the area I feel they should be building a concert hall, when the Adelaide Festival had their pop up venue in this space, it flowed really nicely with the architecture of the Festival Centre. I think a building slotted between the two white domes would really add to the centre and could ...

Re: News & Discussion: Squares and Parklands
Apparently 2024 is some kind of reverse year. Adelaide City Council has committed to opposing all development in the parklands for 5 years, and the Adelaide Park Lands Association calling that unrealistic and wanting sporting facilities and clubrooms upgraded. Of course they do, the APA don't actua...
