[CAN] Re: Hove Level Crossing Removal | $171m

Of all he dumb stuff this government has done, this is one of the dumbest. Let's face it, public rail transport in South Australia has never been a priority, with Liberal governments tending to be the least interested in improving the network. In 2021 we still haven't got a fully electrified rail n...

I presume the wells may be from the 1879 rebuild, but could be from the original building of the 1840s. Below is a picture taken in the 1910s of the rebuild. Thought some of you may be interested...

From AdelaideNow... this site has become a complete disaster. Let's hope the concrete blinding can be disguised in some way with clever (lightweight) landscaping. https://www.adelaidenow.com.au/news/south-australia/davaar-house-to-undergo-multimilliondollar-restoration/news-story/bcfeae26ea3e39b5db1...

With a bit of red, yellow and blue paint we'll have it back to the concrete jungle it was before all this started! No, I'm not serious, but I do hope the landscaping provides some form of protection from the summer sun!

I love that popped open panel. It's been like that for at least 2 years, and makes the building look like a spring loaded toy. :lol:

F***ing hell. It's not even halfway done and it makes every building around it look more rundown and dilapidated than they already are. Plus what is with the marketing -> "Uncommon living for uncommon students". What does that even mean? Uncommon - not often found or seen. They won't be s...

You'd think they'd learn from history when the greenery and water features were downgraded from the original Hajek Plaza plan. Totally agree...this entire precinct through to Intercontinental is almost completely devoid of soft landscaping. I'll be keen to see the final treatment when complete, how...

They are clearly morons, or incompetent. I wonder if they knew at the time they built the new roof, that little over 12 months after, they would be demolishing the stands? Surely, the project would have a better result with a complete re-design? The mind boggles. Between our State Government and th...
