Looks good but I don't understand how anyone can think it's looking tired already when it's been massively upgraded so recently.

:hilarious: I also have a feeling (although a quick search didn't provide an answer) that Ikea owns all their physical stores. I doubt they own stores that are located in Westfield shopping centres though. How many Ikea's are in Westfield's though? Only one that I've been to (Westfield North Lakes) ...

The $18M upgrade for Modbury Triangle only just finished and 12 months later demolish the whole thing?

It was a mistake to begin with.

Demolish it Or turn it into an IKEA / Costco

IKEA is much bigger than that!

The Australian Space Discovery centre is about to open at Lot Fourteen and looks like it will be an exciting place for anyone to visit. It will also be free!

They're refurbishing it, from the carpets to the seats to the front shop to the candy bar. That's fantastic news. Hoyts is my favourite cinema brand. You basically have an almost identical experience to Gold Class at about half the price! Arndale will probably be my closest cinema very soon too.

Romeos will likely have more success in combating the theft issue because they will actually stop the shoplifters! Unfortunately Coles and Woolworths rarely do anymore, but Romeos are independent of all the "must go softly" garbage so they'll just grab the thieves as they walk out the door...

For anyone who has been inside I'm curious to know if there are any differences between this and your typical new build Bunnings. For example, is there still air conditioning?

I really hope it doesn't become another infamous abandoned former Le Cornu site!

Shopping centres everywhere are looking to fill spaces left by retailers that are no longer trading. Entertainment such as Timezone is one option to meet that need. Timezone in Surfers Paradise has just been completely rebuilt. It includes much more than just video games! I know Adelaide has had tro...

John Martins carpark on North Terrace had a multi level apartment block built on top of it.

Probably a better example of rejuvenation is the demolition of the Clipsal factory in Bowden, and it's ongoing replacement with a major and distinctive residential development. Another is the redevelopment of the old RAH, and yet another the replacement of Underdale university with a high quality ne...

Just found this, as the LeCornu store (and the famous sign) come down.

I find this sort of thing fascinating for some reason!

Everybody complaining about this, like this is something new we should be "embarrassed" by or whatever, should at least look up Levitz Funiture. http://i.imgur.com/swRIJsA.jpg Look familiar? I just found this information in the asic insolvency notices. Lists "Levitz Australia Proprie...

I was for a few days until Sunday!
