SkyCity Adelaide will be reopening their original 'Heritage Entrance' on Station Rd from Monday Feb 19, which will be replacing their North Tce entrance.
I never even realised the Station Rd entrance had been closed.

Is the North Tce entrance is going to be permanently closed? Any word on what’s going to happen to that frontage?

Important Update – Entering SkyCity Adelaide
We're thrilled to announce the re-opening of SkyCity Adelaide's original entrance the 'Heritage Entrance' at 10am on Monday 19 February 2024, replacing our North Terrace Entrance which will be closed from this date.

Sounds like any public release of designs for a second tower are a while off: https://www.indaily.com.au/news/2024/02 ... laza-tower

With the exception of the small entry foyer thing, this entrance will take you directly into what was correct me if I'm wrong known as the grand ball room?

I wonder if they'll keep the ATM'S near this entrance. Personally I think they need a better setup for the ATM'S they've been the same for 20 odd years tucked away there.

What's with the big FLINDERS letters that aren't in anything close to their fairly recent rebranding?

I assume the letters are only there for the opening event, probably supplied by an event company.
