Do you know how to upload photos to wikipedia (its not hard)
A couple of them would be great for the article on west lakes. If you are happy to do so then upload them under the public domain. Or just declare here that they are public domain and i'll upload them for you :-)

Great photos! Thanks for sharing Allkai!

They give a good indication of the great views on offer at West Lakes. No wonder there is good demand for high-density development down at West Lakes; a trend I suspect will continue.

What great photos.

I have not seen crane shots like that since the last 007 film.

Well done and congratulations. West Lakes is moving ahead pretty quickly and the higher density living will appeal to many who want a quiet place close to town.

Great photos!!!!

What a fantastic set of pics. Thery sure give West Lakes that canal estate look - with plenty of mid rise bldg to come I'd expect. You can clearly see the potential for demand - great with tram link coming as well.

Hard to believe it was Adelaide's official original 'port' with swamps, mud and mozzies to boot .What a way to greet new arrivals.

Are those little pins really all that's holding the crane together? :lol:

Two months since the last update. Is work still progressing?

Definitely progressing!

Pouring of the podium level is complete, and, the next floor of the South tower probably poured by now also.

Level 2 of the North tower will be poured early next week, so will see another lift of precast following that.

Should start to take shape then.....

Re Infinity:-

Site fencing is gone, and it looked as though there were actually tenants on one level!

(I heard that several million dollars of settlement has actually gone through.... Despite the top levels still looking like a building site! :lol: )

Tenants have moved in on the first 3 levels. We did an inspection here through my work last week and went
up to the penthouse level which is far from finished. The view from here was outstanding of the waterways
and down to the beach - wish I had my camera :(
