So exciting! Looking forward to this. When MicBara says "managing traffic", would that mean moving the lane briefly onto the North Terrace tramlines? Navigating that would be difficult with how close the site is to the University stop. I remember Adelaidean took up a couple of lanes on Fro...

If this was serious, it should have been proposed 5 years ago when they were considering extending the tram. Clearly this is a case of trying to rise the land value and nothing else.

All I can say is that we can blame this on the Chinese developer having a tough time with property and finances at the moment. If the Freemasons bail on their tower for similar reasons, something is seriously wrong in Adelaide Yeah Nah this isn’t it. Never have we ever had two serious propisals of ...

The hotel is going to be a ‘Treehouse’: https://indaily.com.au/news/2023/08/28/ ... al-market/

Well right now it's a hole in the ground, so that's encouraging.

I genuinely want to know what makes this aquatic centre "world class". Just looked up the definition of world class, Miriam Webster defines it as being "of the highest calibre in the world". If I was a swimmer, what would draw me to this aquatic centre over other places? There a...

Have we had a single multi-building project in Adelaide that HASN'T been a complete balls-up?

Kodo? 260 Flinders St?

I think the event should be wound up permanently. It has lost its relevance since the professional year round athletics circuit in Europe has come into being many of the top athletes from Commonwealth nations give it a miss or don't prioritise it as an event to be in top form for. The English, the ...

Nothing happening yet...

Looks like the buyers will be provided with deck chairs to sit on while they wait.

Ah man you’re getting me in my feels too. So many of my uni years were spent in and around this arcade. Great times. Here’s to many more. Definitely the same. I remember sitting at a kiosk eating a pretzel in the centre of the walkway while a lady in a nearby shop convinced "12 year old" ...

I would imagine most retail outlets would be a mix of luxury / local retail (a mix of Frewville foodland with Burnside). Keep in mind, this isn't a huge arcade in terms of floor area compared to the markets themselves. It will work well.

Are you a building contractor? I'm just curious because you insist that all building works can carry on as normal as if the trees weren't there.. I personally don't know, and having seen residential blocks that have had significantly sized gum trees for example left standing, I assume that a block ...

Telstra will occupy the top 2-3 floors. The building is not satisfactorily large enough to fit all Services Australia staff that were planned to be moved there; it was designed and approved pre-pandemic, which as we know changed things a bit. Internal fitout is underway, with some office spaces alr...

The lights on the sign facing west are out of order. Currently 'The Switch' reads 'he wit' at night.

Thanks for the important information SRW. Quite humourous. Everyone be sure to keep an eye on the He Wit lights.
