...could be a lot worse - like the old phone exchange block on - Waymouth St??? Now THAT is ugly! The exchange was designed that way to serve a purpose. You really can't use that as a comparison. :wink: UGLY, looks like something from an Eastern Block country, out of the 1960’s! LOL...isn't Prusz...

[...] This was the plan i was talking about --- all they needed on top of this was a tunnel under grote-wakefield to cater for those that complained business at the central markets etc would be hampered by the plan. The plan above has very little wrong with it. As you said, add the east-west tunnel...

According to the New Development Plan Allowable Building Heights of January 2006 the corner of Bentham and Franklin has a 72metre limit? Has that changed?

...I think we will see a 24level tower (1250sqm floorplates) at about 90m high. I wouldn't get hopes up too high on a 100m+ due to height restrictions (not sure if this is in the 104m zone). Spire is right next door on Bentham and if that is built at the current proposed 105-metre height, then why ...

just curious but if the tram was extended to north adelaide in the future wounld the intersection at north terrace need to be rebuilt? One thing will be for sure, it will be bloody hard to do right turns into North Terrace! I would prefer to see it extended east to the RAH, but that will raise othe...

Anyone here know what kind of air-conditioning system is currently installed on the Flexcity trams?

This could be part of a solution for Brisbane's water supply.

They should build the proposed pipleine from Lake Argyle which would solve the water crisis we have in SA within 3 years and then worry about whether to also build a desal plant. What proposed pipeline? Who proposed that? You? Wasn't this the one proposed by the WA Liberals in their last state elec...

Anyone know for sure where the tugs will be stationed? Is it Dock No.2 or just north of the railway bridge on the eastern side? I don't know for sure, but looking at the height of that tug and the height of the bridge, and knowing what the opening times for the bridge are, I hope the tugs will be s...

In my previous post, I stated that young people hate living here. The reason for this, in my opinion is strongly influenced by our extreme consumerist culture. Generation Y have become such drones to the market, that they have become greedy, selfish and lacking in patience. The young people of toda...

True. As I am confused with all these title changes which plot is it and what's its size?

...the 2.8G variety or you will be waiting, its considered a custom only item and therefore there is less importance based on it. I thought so. If i were you ide order the 24", 2.4G version, 2MB RAM and 500G HD and you should get it in about 2-3 weeks. I'm in no hurry, I've already waited too ...

In regards to the CC6 office tower it is now actually CC8. This whole site sure is confusing as it is constantly changing. At this stage the original approx 15,000m2 proposal is being changed to approximately 30,000m2, similar size to CC1. The amended plan is likely to be submitted in the not to di...

Should get reasonable views from there.

Yes, water underpins everything else. No water, no life! Regarding Pelican Point. They have a power station right next door, but will they pump the brine to the salt pans (via an underwater pipeline)? Port Stanvac seems a better proposition environmentally, but what is the decision regarding the old...
