[COM] Re: Memorial Drive upgrade

Does the government own the Entertainment Centre? Knock it down and sell the land off to help pay for Memorial Drive Arena if that’s what it takes. Unlikely this could happen, since the Govts. $50 million investment 5 or 6 years ago, plus the new-ish multi level car park next door. This facility is...

[COM] Re: Memorial Drive upgrade

I sincerely hope that when this is done, it’s done properly. Concerned about the references to “small to medium concerts” that keep popping up. There’s the perfect opportunity here for a decent purpose built arena smack bang in the middle of the city. Does the government own the Entertainment Centre...

Looks like something is happening, although it could be a red herring as i'm not sure how you can demolish something that is non-existing? :shock: Type: Development Approval Application Number: DA/239/2018 Lodgement Date: 20/04/2018 Location: Skycity Adelaide, North Terrace, ADELAIDE SA 5000 Descri...

I don't remember that spot being this underwhelming.

[COM] Re: 269 North Terrace | 118m | 34 Levels | Student accommodation

I wonder how much of the additional SUPPLY and DEMAND for apartments in the East End is due to the extension of the tram line? Pretty significant me thinks. Which is why a key priority should be plan and build the city tram loop connecting all major CBD precincts within the first term of the Libera...

I mean, I’m shocked that the federal government have refused to fund a public transport project.

What happened to Crowne Plaza in Hindmarsh Square?

Hoping they can do a better job of maintaining the waterfall at the end of the footbridge.

It’s great sticking these features in, but their upkeep is just as important.
