[U/C] Re: Central Market Arcade Redevelopment | 130m | 39 levels
Now you all know me, myself and I have a very controversial opinion in here, but hear me out. I don't give two shits about the market arcade bit, but when is this 130m tower going to be finished? Thats all that matters, are any completion dates announced? Are you serious or is this a troll post? I ...

[PRO] Re: 217/218 Greenhill Road | Park Court | ~10 levels
A bit sad that bungalow with the green roof was knocked down. One of the few remaining relics of the stretch of road before all those ugly low-rise office blocks went in (yes I know there's still some like the one on the corner of George Street, but I heard this stretch once resembled Robe/Fitzroy T...

Does this development even have a website yet? The JWDT website doesn't seem to exist anymore and a quick search of "SA1 tower" or "207 Pulteney Street" only yields the news articles shared on here previously. If there's no website then I imagine construction might still be some ...

I don't mind this building (203 North Terrace, not the "cheese"). It's no masterpiece and I doubt it will win any architectural awards, but at least the precast colouring is consistent and I prefer the beige precast to the grey. But who knows, maybe next time I see it in the flesh I'll cha...

I hope there's not a cheapening of the design/finished product associated with this application.
Wishful thinking, but if there is, I wouldn't mind SCAP reconsidering allowing the existing building to be demolished.

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
I'm not going to bump its thread, but I noticed that the JWDT site is no longer active (developers behind 207 Pulteney Street). Given it's now 2 years since the last hint at the projects existence and the developers site no longer even seems to exist I wonder if we can finally drive a stake through...

Re: Which was Adelaides most significant decade for Infrastructure development
In terms of difference in the CBD, a tie between the 70's and 80's. In terms of impact to the suburbs, definitely the last 10. Unless you're talking purely about height, the 2010s saw more 40m+ highrises completed than any other decade. Numbers are something like this (including buildings outside t...

I suppose there's an element of truth in 'changing the skyline'. As a kid coming home from school westbound from Norwood, 45 Pirie St filled that picture, together with its huge ING logo (wonder if it's still there?). This new building will cover that up. By the way I'm struggling to think of a mor...

Who are the architects? Sorta evokes a slug for me, but it looks good and is great for the region. I imagine construction might be delayed somewhat, but I think it'll remain feasible even despite the pandemic given it'll be targeted at the high end, who will remain wealthy on the other side of this...

[CAN] Re: 64 Currie Street | 92m | 25 Levels | QT Hotel/Office
I quite like the art deco building that's currently on the site, so I wouldn't be too sad if this one didn't go ahead. The design is pretty average and 92m isn't particularly exciting anymore. I think it's pretty safe. Even the ones under construction are likely to have their opening dates postponed...

Wonder why there's such a stink about the height for this being updated on Wikipedia. Someone changed the InterContinental to 91m without any source whatsoever when Emporis states it's 87m.
That page is also missing West Franklin if anyone feels like adding it.

Can we please stop with the general nastiness on both sides? The nastiness seems to break out every once in a while and has been going on for the last few years now.

Anyone else think it looks a bit like the 123 Flinders Street proposal (before it became the mysterious 207 Pulteney)?
I wonder if the architects are the same (Pruszinski)?
