Re: News & Discussion: Public Transport Contracts, Service & Policy

Even many minor railway stations on the Sydney network i.e. Asquith have at least a shop in the vicinity. We still have one or two stations without even a housing estate nearby, but the government wants to "release for housing" vacant land miles from everything. I'm not sure why we have p...

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

I would go as far as saying that if they are trying to sneak a second tower in instead of the lower restaurants/bars that were presented and are more more in fitting with this being a public space, that it should be more of an open tender/offer for bids from multiple parties. That won't happen howe...

Gold Class and Candy Bar areas will also be completely gutted and rebuilt in the next year or two. I couldn't find anything on this, would be cool to se...

[PRO] Re: Masonic Lodge | 183m | 37 Levels | Mixed Use

I'm interested in the thoughts of you blokes (and ladies). The reason we went with two rather than one is: 1) Symmetry - the Freemasons love symmetry they have lots of references and reflections on the importance of it (I don't know much more than that, I just know it's really important to them) an...

Re: News & Discussion: Other Metropolitan Developments

This is the first agreeable planning issue I have heard Champion speak of, so credit where it is due.

The next step will be to improve building materials used in construction.

Absolutely brilliant MicBara. It's been fascinating for us to quintessentially go along for a lot of this ride with you.

I concur, Sky Garden looks incredible. There are few other examples like it in Australia, so it's a great opportunity. It would be an outstanding location for a bar.
