[COM] Re: COM: South Road Superway | $842m | 3km

Anyone noticed the atrocious colour scheme used above the grand junction rd section. blech... superway-colour-designed-by-work-experience-student.JPG I too was of the same opinion when driving around Melbourne for work but I have a theory that it's to break up the long distances travelled where all...

If it is.. it's very close to the airport. The café primo building was limited to a height of 4-5 levels because of federal air space restrictions.

I wonder if the developer knows about this??

Australia's New Tallest (Proposed) 82 Levels, 404m

From the Herald Sun: ONE of the world's tallest buildings, a 404m super tower, has been proposed for Melbourne's CBD. The 82-storey office skyscraper would be almost as tall as the former World Trade Centre towers in New York, but still needs planning approval. Planning Minister Matthew Guy has pav...

[COM] Re: PRO: 318 South Terrace | 8lvls | 26m | Hotel

I've always thought this was a really nice corner of the city -- the Japanese gardens and hopefully-soon-to-be-beautiful Victoria Park nearby, as well as some very impressive turn-of-the-century homes in the streets running to the east off Hutt. Those renders show tables and umbrellas on the footpa...

Re: Mawson Lakes - Not just another suburb

Yes it was well documented a few years ago that some people installed large commercial A/Cs in their homes but it hardly justifies this sort of throw away line "complete failure to be built with any form of energy conservation ideals." Yep agree 100%. A mate of mine has built many townhou...

Re: Mawson Lakes - Not just another suburb

Oh, and next to the nine level render on the previous page, an application was lodged with the Salisbury Council last month for (5-11 Metro Parade) for a building with two ground floor office tenancies and ten apartments / townhouses. The dissappointing thing about Mawson Lakes is the mixture of te...

Re: New Retail in the CBD

I may only be a High Rise Poster but it is appropriate to have a thread titled 'New Retail in the CBD' always at the top of the CBD Development section where people talk about coffee?? Who gives a f**k about shopping??

Re: News: Adelaide City Council

Excuse my ignorance but is it not reasonable to remove Victoria Square from the map? Change the diamond shape to a square and continue King William Street straight through and create four city blocks. The sale of land going towards investment elsewhere in the city. Victoria Square appears to be a wh...

If the first thing they do is re-pave, I'm going to have a stroke. quote from Yarwood over here re the mall makeover: At least there will be new pavers and they won't be ugly grey blocks. "Rundle Mall is tired. I think the paving choice was poor," Yarwood says. "We want something tim...
