One of the new red trams has been covered in Advertising but its pretty poor IMO it literally Says "West Franklin Adelaide's best address" No pictures or information. It's not really going to attract much interest. In advertising terms known as a "teaser" In advertising terms kn...

[U/C] Re: 145-159 King William Street (GPO) | 60m~ | 15 Levels | M

To become a vibrant city, Adelaide needs to dramatically increase the permanent population of people actually living in the city. Adelaide, compared to other city's doesn't have much density. I would love to see Adelaide become a 24 hour city. Similar to Melbourne. I understand that to much high ris...

Re: News & Discussion: Low/Mid-Rise CBD Development

Good to see things happening in that part of the city, now they just have to do something worthwhile to whitmore square! (And the other squares for that matter). Adelaide has amazing open spaces in the middle of the city, yet they all look dated and are basically just a few ugly trees and grass. Wou...

[PRO] Re: 292-300 Rundle Street | 79m | 23 Levels | Mixed Use

I'm all for high rise all over the city, the east end in my opinion is the perfect location for residential high rise. Saying that, Rundle street has a really unique feel that should be preserved. I think leave the shop fronts on Rundle street as is. As long as the high rise are built behind the fir...

Adelaide really needs more "wow look at that buildings" something really out of the ordinary would have been great here.

[COM] Re: 27-31 Angas Street | 103m | 30 lvls | Kodo Apartments

Im all for the height of this thing, but honestly think the building looks average. Cant say I like the green at all, I think this will look dated pretty quickly. reminds me of a few other apartment buildings in Adelaide that have utilized bold colors on the outside, they look dated and cheap tbh (a...

[U/C] Re: 145-159 King William Street (GPO) | 60m~ | 15 Levels | M

This space really calls for something special, its really the perfect place for something really big (150m and upwards). Of course people will complain and say it looks out of place.(maybe it will at first) But if you want to have an impressive skyline you have to start somewhere. other buildings wi...
