[COM] Re: SAHMRI Stage 2

It's probably only me, but I always liked the brutalist bunker type design of the control centre, with its angled glass windows.

[COM] Re: 27-31 Angas Street | 103m | 30 Levels | Kodo Apartments

Just heard on Channel 9 news that AAL are courting Delta & United Airlines to provide direct services from ADL to the West Coast of the US. Now that's potentially exciting news! :D
