[COM] Re: Festival Plaza Incl. 115m Tower | $800 million

Re height / not mentioned to be the tallest;

This will stand at 149m, while the proposed Freemasons tower will stand at 183m anyway.

Obviously that depends on if / when either are built and in what final form anyway.

[COM] Festival Plaza Incl. 115m Tower | $800 million

“In exchange for the increased height, Walker Corporation will provide $40 million worth of benefits to taxpayers, likely including reserving the four bottom levels for "public civic space". https://www.9news.com.au/national/adelaide-festival-plaza-second-tower-plans-unveiled/c2a7c954-5a3c...

Re: News & Developments: Bowden TOD

agree with sentiments above about townhouses as a poor use of space at a site like this. They should be building 3 bedroom appartments, however not in the traditional sense where they are built as more luxurious with a price to match, just liveable and affordable. It shouldn’t be that much more cos...

Looks fantastic, hopefully it actually gets built out and not dumbed down, but Gurner does tend to do good stuff.

Meanwhile disappointing it will be next the new Fugly paintwork going on the Ex Aus Post / Kenards storage building

[VIS] Re: New Womens and Childrens Hospital

This whole saga has been a farce. The dream outcome would be nWCH on the site around Newmarket Hotel/old HQ, the West End site for a high-density and transit-oriented affordable housing development, and the greys retained at their current site with some work done to improve the surrounds and connec...

[VIS] Re: New Womens and Childrens Hospital

Worth noting that the government just bought the West End brewery land for $68 million, but is on track to spend more than $114 million relocating the police barracks. And yet we're supposed to believe that the parklands location is the best and only option for the nWCH, when it is neither more cos...

These window prototypes were actually displayed offsite in Adelaide a while ago.
