I once suggested on here that the whole riverside precinct needed to be knocked down with the exception of parliament (old & new) and the railway/casino building, and started from scratch. Now that what was an underused & unmaintained eyesore for public space is being redeveloped into a sec...

Due to Adelaide being the most car-relient city in Australia, I came up with a plan to deter all those hideous multi-storey carpark proposals yet keep people's demands for personal transport satisfied. Why don't we just turn this: :? http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6mr3i_Vmz3c/STE4MoCnpTI/AAAAAAAABiY/DR2...

Rewind 15 years and the site where this building and Building 1 stand was public space. It seems to ask why is public space being given up to a developer to build an office tower. Could the tower not be built on the site of the Riverside Centre? Or between the Intercontinental and North Terrace. Th...

Greens calling Adelaide "legoland" because of this development is going to backfire. Everyone loves lego, and a legoland sounds great.

I like the building but because I've been living in Jakarta much of this year, so personally , I prefer the design of their new towers a lot more than Adelaide's. Nothing wrong with this but I hate it when SA politicians and business people pump things up with FOMO. Adelaide's got a lot going for i...

there isn't much construction activity going on at the moment in the high rise sector, which is the main thrust of this forum... so people are finding other things to talk about What a load of codswallop!! The only person finding other things to talk about is you deliberately targeting mattblack, P...

If Riverlea was a TOD, the government wouldn't need to sprawl out to Two Wells

I’d be surprised if this gets up. I reckon the cranker is one of the only buildings/institutions in Adelaide that would result in genuine unrest if it was about to be bulldozed. Agree wholeheartedly. I think most people would be happy if they incorporated the building into their design or if the de...

this is what I have to deal with on a daily basis... https://www.sensational-adelaide.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=216061#p216061 Aww stop playing a victim. You are the most antagonistic one that causes the vast majority of arguments on this forum. The majority of problems would be solved if you were ...

Just to help dispel abc's clueless assertions that young people aren't into live music at the cranker, here's an article from the shatvertsier with the exact opposite. The cranker is far from the typical dreary and depressing pub that abc might be into. Maybe abc should head into the city to see wha...

The Adelaide Unibar is probably the worst example you could've given to suggest live music venues in the CBD are more profitable than ever. Its part of a university FFS which has multiple funding sources. UniBar is a great proof that young people are into live music though... It also functions prof...

They are in a minority for their generation. Its no accident live venues are going the way of the dodo. What a cooked comment, if you actually look at the numbers, live music venues are generally more profitable than ever in Adelaide's CBD, (for example, unibar's capacity needed to be expanded beyo...

live music is going the way of boomers. the kids want to see DJs play recorded music now I'm guessing you haven't been to the Cranker in a while! "The kids" are very much into the live gigs played there. They are in a minority for their generation. Its no accident live venues are going th...

So uneccessary to be demolishing the Cranker. It's a cultural institution and one of Adelaide's oldest buildings. I will definitely sign a petition if there is one. Honestly, this should be blocked on the principal that it’s a culturally significant area. Whatever one’s interpretation of ‘culture’ i...
