There was a sod turning ceremony today to officially commence construction. Apparently the federal government has committed $7m to this project. What is the federal government doing contributing money to a church project? What a terribly misinformed question to ask. Do you actually know what Unitin...

This is a certainly a bold proposal! Obviously the architects have understood that the design of the main building is paramount to the aesthetic of North Terrace and have created something quite iconic. Yet it still fits in well with the surrounding streetscape! I love how the buildings seem to floa...

I think that setting the main tower back off Frome Road would do wonders for the aesthetic of this development. Despite the fact that this tower calls for the demolition of the Rhino Room, which is extremely disappointing, I do think that a tower here would bring much needed foot traffic into the pr...

I have heard that Uniting Communities will be relocating their offices from this site in April.

it reminds me of the ill-fated Bentham Street apartment proposal from way back when.

Where? Name it all and the locations. Ah, it's bullshit is it? Why because my opinion doesn't fit in with your beliefs? Typical politically correct madness that's ruined this country. I don't know what's more hilarious, the fact homosexuals wand to be treated as equals in society, but then expect s...

I have heard on the grapevine that two private hospitals are considering amalgamating their services at a new premesis near the new RAH.

i think that the train line already does a pretty good job of this!

I would presume that the internal fit out for a med school would be much more expensive than that of an apartment building, hence the higher cost of construction.

the fact that this has no ugly 70m high concrete wall means it gets a thumbs up from me.

it's an ideal location in a relatively low traffic area. i hope to see more developments of this scale around whitmore square.

a lot of activity on site today. looked like hoardings were going up?

I think they could have gotten a lot more people involved and sent a stronger message if they stayed focused on the main issue which was meant to be about cuts to higher education. Instead, it just came across as a protest against Tony Abbott, which let's be honest, nobody in power is actually going...

What was the Mariana Market? After one of the shops on the edge of Central Market had a dispute with Adelaide City Council over what was meant by Asian vegetables they moved across the street to a new, much bigger shop next to the bus station, and named it after where they were from. It had a bette...

we made the mistake once with the monstrosities adjacent to the strathmore. not again. north terrace deserves better imo.
