I had an interview in this building. Got the job, too.

Grats mate!!! Glad to hear that. So you'll be working in CC1?

[UrbanSG]

Well done AtD. If you are working in CC1 I trust we can look forward to some CBD shots from this prime location

[AtD]

Nah, I wish. The job is in Canberra somewhere.

As mentioned in the tram extension thread, I now work in CC1, and took these photos today. Enjoy!

Great pics PhilH. Thanks for that, always appreciate different angles of the skyline and development sites.

Thanks for the photos, it is good to see Adelaide from up above, onto the ground below. My favourite pic is of the wide Vic Square shot where the new SA Water and Comm Law Courts are featured against the heritage of GPO and St Xaviers. Its really nice.

From the Baulderstone Hornibrook website:

Bauderstone projects win industry accolades
Baulderstone Hornibrook has won two awards in the prestigious 2008 National Innovation and Excellence Awards presented by the Property Council of Australia at a gala event in Melbourne on Saturday, 24 May 2008. City Central Tower 1 in South Australia has won the National Innovation & Excellence Award for Office Developments, having already won the state award for South Australian Development of the Year. The 21-storey City Central Tower 1 was the first building to be completed in the $750 million multi-tower precinct being developed in the heart of Adelaide’s CBD. It is the largest commercially designed 5 Star Green Star building in Australia. Centre Court in New South Wales has won the National Innovation & Excellence Award for Business Parks. Centre Court is the new headquarters for Optus and is the largest single tenant campus-style workplace in the Southern Hemisphere. It consists of six office buildings linked together with four core blocks and access bridges, built above two large basement car park levels. The development incorporates a number of Ecologically Sustainable Development initiatives and will provide an international benchmark in commercial campus design. The project was finished on budget and an impressive six months ahead of schedule. Please contact Chris Reynolds for further information. (02) 9935 7100.

In isolation, it's fine - when replicated several times over within the one city block, it becomes uninspired and underwhelming.

Seeing some of Mr. AtD's photos of Adelaide without CC1 reminded me just how much of an impact it has had upon city views - especially looking north from Victoria Square.

This pic posted by slap on SkyscraperCity is the best yet I reckon. I can't believe it is Adelaide :

Earth Hour eat your heart out

[Joely]

That is just stunning! Now if only the ACC could provide lighting at that brightness as real time light as opposed to a long exposure photograph, then we will start to well and truly look like a city at night

[talrok]

cruel_world that's a classic .. haha!!

Whilst I have never been a fan of these two buildings (ie. in looks), this pic does look good.

[skyliner]

What a fantastic pic - all action and alive - like our CBD of the near future . I wish.

BTW - I have been trying to get a pic of Adelaide back along the Torrens looking west from the south bank - somewhat east of the Morphett Br. at night. (Also under time exposure) Any knowledge of such around?

ADELAIDE - TOWARDS A GREATER CITY SKYLINE

Yeah that just looks hot

Even the telephone exchange building to the far left has a pleasing blue glow

ANZ doesn't seem that big from the street level, but I guess there's a fair bit of taller stuff in the area, so it's not so noticeable
