And the lifts that replaced the old manually operated one... they couldn't have been over 5 years old. Wonder if they were salvaged.

thanks Scooter Guy for the photo updates. Haven't had a chance to get into the city myself in the last few weeks to have another look. Does anyone know if anything is being saved / sold off from the building?
I'm guessing the Rundle Mall tower only has a week or two longer to go until its dust...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmGlbJFA0rQ It really is the Myer building repeating itself all over again... I am sure in the next 20 years we will look back on this project and once again think "What the hell have we done!!" Also, a little bit of memories here... http://www.youtube.com/w...

Gee they don't waste any time do they. Thinking of trying to get back into the city Monday afternoon but as mentioned in my last post, I did manage to visit again Thursday evening and took some shots... http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3236/5768213494_b7e6e00f2b.jpg Grenfell Car Park Access, Harris Sc...

went into the city last night again to check out the site again and will put some more photos on my flickr over the weekend. It got me thinking though when i saw the story on ten news tonight that with all the excavation work, the workers would be digging up earth that may not have been touched for ...

Opps - that was a massive slip... sorry guys

A friend of mine who loves at Glenelg said that there was an article in their local Messenger saying that the cinema will be demolished? I hope this isn't true but does anyone know anymore or have a copy of this article from the last few weeks?

At least I am not the only one that thinks the replacement is a horrid, ugly, boring piece of glass crap :toilet: Haven't we learnt that it is possible to keep a facade and develop behind it - eg. State Bank Building. Soon we will have nothing but carbon copies of each building all made from glass. ...

Hopefully they remove that air con before they remove that old signage - that signage would have to be older than the lettering facing Grenfell Street. Good find

Just uploaded some more photos from last months and today of the demolition progress... http://www.flickr.com/photos/34520752@N07/sets/72157624701307224/ http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2768/5717611795_baa612a843.jpg Harris Scafe Demolition by baytram366 , on Flickr http://farm3.static.flickr.com/202...

Thanks Xaragmata for posting those fantastic photos. I've been meaning to get into the city myself this week but have been a little ill. Hopefully not too much will be demolished before I can take a closer.

I wonder what is going to happen to all of this? Especially the "safe that isn't going anywhere"... very interesting video

Love the historical logo - great spotting

The photo above with the Malls Balls will make a great reference point for a before and after photo. Great shots of a sad subject. Looks like they are really going full steam ahead with the demo...

Went into the city after work yesterday and by the looks nothing has really changed since the last few posts here. The Rundle Mall side looks as it always has but as mentioned above, the Grenfell Street frontage is well into being removed. The roof has all been lifted exposing the beams. Will be pos...
