Re: News & Developments: Glenelg

That's a great shot of the skyline in the distance. What a huge impact a few buildings in the 150-160m+ range would make.

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

I really don't understand Adelaide's obsession with building tiny platform shelters that don't even offer any protection or even look good. So many of these useless shelters across the Adelaide Metro network. Agreed, and it most likely just comes down to money. They really should invest in making r...

Re: Riverlea (Buckland Park) | 12,000 dwellings | $3b

Buckland Park still exists. It's west and south of what's now RIverlea Park. I've noticed as well quite a few of the homes built, have a noticeable elevation from the footpath, about a foot or 2 or there about's. Most houses have some drop from the home to the foopath anyway, so not sure if it's jus...

Re: Riverlea (Buckland Park) | 12,000 dwellings | $3b

What Riverlea needs most urgently is petrol station -preferably with take away food. A couple of weeks ago I had to go to Two Wells running on empty. Virginia would have been closer I think. 40,000 new residents, I'm sure it wont be long before an X Convenience or OTR pops up. Google Street view is...

[U/C] Re: Victoria Tower - 36 Grote Street | 123m | 35 levels | apartments

I reckon this and the Central Market tower will make a noticeable impact from Port Road.
Should fill the gap partially between the RAA building and Sofitel.

IqKIlLS7ln4 -Sydney is the 2nd least affordable among 94 major cities in the world. Adelaide is in that list too. Graphics with selected cities highlighted doesn't change that fact.

Re: The Housing Crisis

Page 2 includes a long article that includes a quote that housing construction was already slowing. Nobody (in the article or here) has attempted to either challenge or explain that statement. There seems to be plenty of land "released" for housing. Has somebody done an analysis of what i...

Re: News & Developments: Glenelg

The 2018 Masterplan talks about the potential relocation of the tram stop to Colley Tce so they can better utilise Moseley Square. Judging by those concept drawings, that won't be happening. Would be good if they could do a bit of a loop around Glenelg, and bring the tram/add a stop near the marina

Re: The SA Politics Thread

There are a total of 47 representatives in the Lower House. A party needs a majority of 24 seats to govern. There are 5 crossbenchers. Labor already had 27 seats. Very likely to increase that majority to 28 seats, with the Dunstan by election win. Liberals had 15 seats, now down to 14 most likely. ...
