Isn't the rail lease holder supposed to maintain the line in working condition? If so, it shouldn't be an issue to run a special service. That was how the deal was presented at the time, to reduce backlash from giving up the line, but it's well known that there has been no enforcement of that condi...

The upgrade looks great and is well overdue. I don't think the people in the tenders represent the actual crowd though ... Where's Stumbling Sam, Drunk Dave and a random person throwing up in one of the new planter boxes? Hopefully the urban elements are all designed to take plenty of damage, inclu...

Random thought from when I was walking through the mall just after the shops had closed and needed a toilet... Wasn't part of the deal with this site getting the old public bathrooms for their building that they had to provide new publicly accessible bathrooms? The bathrooms they've built in the ar...

What do we, the public, as owners of the land, get out of this deal?

We've chipped in $220 million to pretty the plaza and prime rents for Walker in now two overheight towers on public land. Do we get reimbursed? Will Walker contribute to a concert hall or upgrade to Festival Centre? What's our ROI?

However, it looks like the footpath treatment will be mostly concrete with occass...

Can i block abc too? Or do i need admin rights?

You can only 'ignore' a user not 'block'. You still see every time they post but you can't read it (unless someone quotes it).

That last part is why I think it's good to remind all to not feed the trolls.

I have been here since 2007 and last week was the first time I've placed a user on ignore. But even that doesn't help overcome this one user's constant disruption to multiple threads.

'Residents to move in at the start of 2026'... I hope they can keep to the timeline on this project. I note that the Park Court site at Greenhill Rd is a similar model and nothing's happened there since demolition of existing homes early last year.

Mods, we're more than two pages off-topic here. A little corrective?
