[APP] Re: Masonic Lodge | 183m | 37 Levels | Mixed Use

Hey team, Approved. The media found out before we did which was pretty annoying because we like the members to be informed first when we can. The reserve matters are largely additional detail that we have put off until we had the certainly of planning approval. Demolition of the rear hall is probab...

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development

I can't remember where I read it but I am fairly sure I read an article recently that said in just SA alone, there are around 1 million homes just sitting vacant for various reasons. What is Champion talking about? Of course empty houses are important to the current issues. There's no way there wou...

Re: The Housing Crisis

Adelaide house prices have hit another record. House prices soared by 53 per cent in one western suburb over the past year while the median cost for a home in Adelaide has hit a new high, according to the latest real estate data. https://www.indaily.com.au/business/property/2024/07/18/adelaide-prope...

Francis Street with patterned bitumen. Still think it would have been far nicer paved. Click on image for bigger.

Re: News & Discussion: Squares and Parklands

Not complaining about the development (although i think many road users would) But what about finishing Vic Square. Any works on Light Square are still about 5 years away, but there's an added impetus because of the influx of residents in the vicinity. The city should be an attractive place to live...

Re: The Housing Crisis

'Australia needs new home every few minutes to meet population demand' Official statistics suggest a new home must be built in Australia every few minutes to keep up with migration as new housing data paints a grim picture for people trying to get on the property ladder.

[SWP] Re: Lot 14 (Old RAH Site)

This parcel of land has not been parklands since the 1840s. It seems that the Aboriginal Culture Gallery is dead, but to suggest returning the land to parklands, whilst affordable would be such an insipid and short-sighted waste of prime North Terrace frontage. No one would ever visit Adelaide to s...

Re: News & Discussion: Laneway & Streetscape Projects

Gouger St is already stuffed -you would be lucky to do 30 K/hr now. When no one goes to the city don't blame me. Did people stop going to the city when they made the western end of Hindley St 30 kph? Making precincts like these more pedestrian friendly is far more important than motorists shaving o...

[U/C] Re: Port Adelaide Dock Spur Line

The population in and around Port Adelaide is going to increase a fair bit over the next 5 years. Hopefully by then we see at least 15 minute intervals in peak periods.
