Very interesting indeed! It should be noted that SA has been losing population for some years to the other states - to see a gain is encouraging - with more to come one would speculate. SA - STATE ON THE MOVE The state is still losing people to interstate migration. We had a net loss of around 4000...

drive passed it every day and never seen a soul.

Blue louver windows starting to go in on the carpark levels on the Nth easten corner and a granite fasade placed in on the Hindmarsh sq side. Looking good.

There are 2 cores going up on the hotel. Maybe a service elevator going in?

So they've been scurrying around trying to get accommodation for this imminent move. Nothing has been set in concrete, and it's...
