Not just the windows, but the aluminum cladding too! By then it will blend well with the modernism of City Central/SA Water and even MLC House (by a good 50 years!) :P

Hopefully it'll provide a nice contrast to the Hilton Hotel then! -

There's more than just three levels still to be done though, yes?

Oh well, bit by bit...

Walking through the city yesterday, noticed red scafolding around the second to last level of the SGIC building. Looks like the reno is continuing...

Good to see this is finally getting done - not a good ad for VSQ as it was.

Temporary fencing has gone up again in Morialta Street (west of the building) so hopefully Stage 4 is close to commencing. Watching this refurb is like watching an epic!

Finally indeed!

They've been doing some internal works for a while now. Can't wait to see the external upgrade finally completed.

Finally!!

Hopefully some major alterations will be done to the western exterior aswell, which looks extremely horrid

Finally!! Looked like a bomb had gone off inside leaving a gaping caverous facade.

I always thought this building's exterior needed a coat of paint additional to the new glass to help complete its rejuvenation...

I'm under the impression they will be installing aluminium cladding to replace the beige facade.

About time too!

Work has finally commenced on level 8. Hopefully per the most recent application, the entire building will be completed this time around.
