Thanks Norman. I must say, it doesn't look too bad there.

What was your vantage point?

Seeing the marvellous renovated Eveleigh railway buildings/warehouses each week on MasterChef makes me sad every time I see wonderful old red-brick industrial buildings discarded in their entirety for the sake of 1960s Public High School....er.....inner-city developments. I see a delightful one located just to the right of Altitude in Norman's first photo, so I really hope it isn't wasted on yet another example of Rotterdam post-war government housing......er.....inner-city developments.

Perfect shots there Norman! I'm guessing they were taken from the ATO building on Waymouth Street? Great views from there if that's were they were taken from.

Also it looks like one more core pour to go as the renders show 9 floors above the big 'yellow noodles'.

Here is Norman's great pic posted yesterday:

And here is a basic photoshop effort I have done to show roughly how much higher this one will go:

Oh god!

This precinct is going to look horrendous.

A 60's public high school and then some communist apartment blocks behind it :|

Glass and detailing on Altitude could help its appearance once completed but the whole 'Precinct' could end up rather ugly, especially if these building designs are repeated up to 5 times!

I must confess, somewhat different to the renders we've seen. Perhaps the angle is the issue. Does look less that impressive archtecturally. Will leave a marked impression on that part of the city just the same.

And the render per an early post in this thread, it is certainly a far cry from the current photos of the building!
