Re: News & Discussion: CBD Retail

OTR is open 24/7 if you're desperate for shops, if you're after a meal there's always fast food.

All of these 100m+ proposals, surely one of them will pull through.

[COM] Re: 11-27 Frome Street | ~120m & 70m | 36 & 21 Levels

Does Adelaide have room for all of these proposed hotels? Will be interesting to see which applications end up getting up. Disappointing that the rhino room hasn't been incorporated into this, they could have gone as far as expanding on it and making it a true stronghold for standup comedy and the l...

Re: Infill Developments | Metropolitan Adelaide

I was wondering what happened to that one. Will be good to see some greater densities along NE road, and this is a good location to start with.

And they say things travel slowly here in Adelaide... ;)
Only catch is it has to be student accommodation and the design must be sub-standard in order to progress quickly :lol:

Was the height of the office building ever established? Forgive me if I'm asking previously answered questions.

What's going on with those cars in the garage? some sort of optical illusion? :lol:

Looks good though, Thebarton is prime for some higher densities!

What a joke, surely they've been fudging sales figures for awhile. If this was truly 80% sold as they've been harping for ages then we would be seeing it go up. Feel sorry for the buyers who are in the dark. Hopefully they sell the site and someone who is committed to putting something up comes along.

Regardless of outcomes lets hope that the rhino room is given assistance (if required) to relocate and hopefully they can recreate the vibe/feel that exists now (which is marvelous). lets also hope whatever is put up is of a high standard - I'd love to see a quality building work to block out the hi...

[APP] Re: PRO: 157-159 Waymouth Street | ~80m | 24 Levels | Mixed

That is quite nice, particularly the street level activation. Will be a nice change of height if it does eventuate, most of the new buildings around this area are at the 55-60m range. I wonder what the eastern wall looks like though - usually cause for concern when renders avoid illustrating a certa...

This is SWP now, Built are doing internal work and there's Construction Site signs on the window. Another good development for the booming Western side of the CBD. In the meantime over at the City East precinct the locals don't want a 27 level building because it would result in the demolition of t...

Well said Patrick, you've said what my lazy self couldnt be arsed typing :lol:

lets hope the developers take the rhino room and all its cultural importance into account and works to integrate it into this development in a quality manner, although I wont be holding my breath for this to happen.
