[COM] Re: 231-243 Waymouth Street | 55m | 17lvls | Student Accom

I actually really like this building. I know a lot of you think it’s ugly as s**t but I think if it were painted white it would do a world of difference. For example there is a student accommodation building in India that is very similar but looks so nice. https://www.archdaily.com/883227/stacked-s...

Hey Morty, apologies if I came across as overly negative in my previous post – I am one of the people who really quite likes this building and, whilst I agree it is fairly imposing on the otherwise empty skyline in this area at the moment, I think it will really come into its own when the surroundi...

I totally agree with morty on this but I appreciate you being diplomatic about it Ben. These developments do not look good on their own so I agree that we shouldn’t be seeking development for the sake of it but be consistent with expectations of high quality developments. A lot of people on here sa...

Aaah, as has been mentioned previously, this forum isn't designed for people looking for a property to buy (although some use the information to inform their decisions). We are here because we have an interest in the future of Adelaide and how new developments i9nfluence its growth and prosperity. ...

I did put down a deposit for such an apartment (not in West Franklin though) and I have absolutely no problem with having that building in my future panorama... Good luck with the purchase. Now If you ever want to sell it tho, you will have to find a buyer who will also like the view. Not every pot...

I think this will look better once you see more glass modern development around it. The contrast could be good. I doubt people would buy apartment with the view of this crap from their balcony. I am extremely lucky that I didn't put down deposit for West Franklin with airport view apartment. Had I ...

Re: Atira Waymouth Street Building

It might also be of comfort to know this building is surrounded by development sites which means its dominance on that part of the skyline is short lived. West Franklin will block this out from a large area with further upcoming developments to further block it out. The fact that it's surrounded by...

Re: Atira Waymouth Street Building

Dude, it might be worth accepting that what constitutes a good looking building is very subjective. Just because you think the building looks 'crap' it does not mean that the rest of the population thinks so too - even if it did then it would not necessarily constitute a valid reason to demolish or...

Re: Atira Waymouth Street Building

Love it, or hate it. It's built, get over it. if we get over it, they will keep building these kind of crap everywhere in CBD for higher profit. Neighbouring building built by Greaton spend around 300 million for same level of floors while Atira spend 35 millon or something. Kudo also spend around ...

Re: Atira Waymouth Street Building

It's built now, it's there. Although I think it would make sense for the developers to look what they can do with the building finish simply because it's currently embarrassing to include in their portfolio. I do think there should be stricter guidelines on renders put forward when a building is be...

Sign me up for the group that doesn't like it - the materials might save it, but they could also ruin it. I'm not entirely sure how to articulate it, but I don't really like that the windows just look like they've been cut out of the cladding and had glass stuck into them. I suppose it has the fact...
