A couple of windows have been fitted on level 4 of the centre tower on the O' Connell St side.

This development should really look good and will add much to the vibrancy and appeal of North Adelaide.

Yes it has only taken since 1985 when le Cornues closed

Some update pictures from 23/3/2024. North and South towers at level 9, central tower at level 10.

Cranes are very prominent from Adelaide Oval.

From yesterday at Lefevere Tce - as a Fiji Airline plane was landing

Some update pictures as of 2/4/2024. tower 1 (furthest from city).

A view of new windows on level 4 on north side of tower 1 ( furthest from city).

Some pictures of installing new side window panels with brick patterns on north side of tower 1 ( furthest from city). these panels are temporary hung using a compact portable crane on the floor above.

From the end of the airport runway.

A photo like that reminds you just how damn flat the Adelaide Plains really are.

it's an airport FFS... would you rather it be on the side of a hill?

the only reason you can see 88 O'Connell Street from there so prominently is because of the elevation of the geography

You don't say! I never would have guessed that an airport would be flat if you hadn't enlightened me in such a polite manner.

Get out of bed on the wrong side this morning, did you?

The elevation data in Google Earth is interesting. The photo vantage point at the Airport viewpoint is at ~3 m elevation. The main runway is 3 m at west end and 6 m east end. O'Connell St is at 48 m, North Tce/KW St is at 42m and Victoria Sq is 45 m. KWm at Adelaide Oval is 27 m.
