[COM] Re: Renaissance Arcade | 132m | 40 Levels | Realm Apartments

On a side note you'd be pretty p'd off if your home suddenly turned into a hotel building. Not sure how this continues to happen in Adelaide. What difference does it make brother ? Lots. Those who are not using their apartment as a commercial business are subsidising those who are. The ATO recognis...

[COM] Re: Renaissance Arcade | 132m | 40 Levels | Realm Apartments

The arcade entrance looks complete but remains unopened. It doesn't look particularly inviting either. I thought the old stone building would become some sort of commercial space, but at the moment it remains a shell directly open to the utility area/car space. looking through the windows a few nig...

Maybe a dumb question, and maybe on the wrong page, ...but How distinctive is "student housing"? How difficult would it be to reconfigure into family housing or retirement village or anything else? Student housing is basically single room hostel style accommodation, with common kitchen an...

Good pickup Ben, still strange, literally nothing happening on the site for a long time, went past there yesterday and still don't see/hear anything going on in the arcade/foyer. I was also looking at the lights on the top a band of green/white/red that is stationary. Shame really an opportunity mis...

Not sure what is happening with this building. The arcade stuff does not seem to be moving, not much has happened there in the last 3 or so weeks. Also looking through the front doors and the uphostery seems to be missing from the rear of the chairs in the Foyer and have been for the last 3 or 4 wee...

External lifts coming down- this window is even dirtier than the other one:
That explains a lot, I was past there about midnight and the Austin street was closed and couldn't get through.

thanks for posting these. I'm guessing that will be the disabled access ramp they are now doing on the left?

Looks fantastic, and so much better than that original render. Yep, something very standout for Adelaide. I would be pissed if I'd paid big money for a west facing apartment in the Adelaidean and had to see this looking much more impressive every day. Wouldn't you prefer living in the Adelaidean wi...

Finally, they have removed the big metal platform they had over Austin Street giving the first uninterupted view of the front of the building, lots of work happening in the renaissance arcade area and the foyer section some work happening but not much. Here is a view of the front of the building loo...

I would imagine you will see a lot more activity now? they will start, I'm guessing, to complete all the ground floor stuff - arcade, foyer etc
