Sydney not only has the population, but australian aviation started there and it has over 100,000 employees.

I think adelaide actually does pretty well for itself considering its geographic location and population....i mean it does handle 7million ppl/year.

i still don't quite understand why this is going to cost 100million

i can't believe they demolished that nice old italian restaurant for a carpark...WTF?

nice looking plan, but just tow flaws..how are they going to build those towers on the parklands? the nimby's would go nuts and not let it happen, especially the preservation park lands society. secondly, isn't AMMI stadium owned by SANFL? if so how will the libs sell it?
