Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
Out of all the buildings in that area, the Intercontinental is the only building in my opinion that has aged the best. If its re-clad or repainted, it will only age quicker and require more maintenance. A good clean is all it needs but I do fear with its upcoming refurbishment that it will be turne...

[COM] Re: Festival Plaza Tower 1 | 115m | 27 Levels | Office
It's also not a great idea to be lining a busy pedestrian route with trees which have an awful habit of randomly dropping branches (last night I narrowly avoided one on the linear path near the Par 3 carpark entrance). Surely there are other natives we can plant that aren't gum trees.

Not to mention that the facade was the least of the problems. They haven't even touched the mess that is the escalator layout.

The misters aren't venting the gasses, it's for suppressing the smells and dust.

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
The article touches on light access, but there's also the issue of services — particularly plumbing — as well as differences in ceiling heights. The sentiment is good, but the reality is very few office buildings are suitable for retrofitting into residential.

[PRO] Re: Festival Plaza Tower 2 | 149m | 38 Levels | Office
A lot of people seem to forget how bleak and boring the original festival plaza was with its painted concrete cubes and the camouflaged car park exhaust stack and the leaky car park. It was even more boring in winter. I loved the Hajek Plaza, but it was compromised from the start (gardens and water...

Re: News & Discussion: Squares and Parklands
Agreed, and it's a massive shame that absolutely nothing from that masterplan has been implemented. I'd add to that list, progress on connecting the different parks by grade separating pedestrian links from the roads that cut across, with the eventual goal of being able to circle the entire city wit...

Re: Forum Etiquette
Unfortunately the level of discourse on these forums is at an all time low. Just about every thread or topic I open up is a slanging match between a minor cohort of the same users over and over again. There was a time when I used to look forward to logging on and reading what news, photos and updat...

Re: News & Developments: Bowden TOD
Agreed re: the carpark. Keeping the Premier as far away as possible from any planning decisions at Bowden is essential. It feels like Bowden is starting to make progress and move along again, with proposals for all sites except the one at the front next to Jarmers - any idea what is happening with ...

I don't mind it. https://renewalsa.sa.gov.au/news/affordable-housing-takes-centre-stage-as-showstopping-bowden-legacy-piece-revealed Also, has the office development next to Bowden Station started?
