Drove past it today, its too big! If it was 20% smaller it wouldn't be as bad.
Too thicc or tall?
Because I thought Adelaide was a major city and a State Capital. 117m is quite tame..
There are high rises in the suburbs of Melbourne and Sydney that are bigger than this.

As well as the general hesitation for developments in the Adelaide CBD. What makes you say that? Most developments that are proposed seem to be approved by SCAP. There is no harm in applying good scrutiny on projects if they don't meet the guidelines, which are already very relaxed. The main issue,...

How is it that other cities are able to have and other developers & architects are able to create tall buildings clad entirely in glass, but we can't do that here? Isn't the Adelaide City Council notorious for keeping Adelaide in the 70's? Here in Melbourne we have the opposite problem, we are gett...

Now at level 6, which might give us a sense of the speed of progress: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Floor jump system is being installed too, looking at the right side of your shot. I dare say this will be a quick build. What is a "Floor jump system" for those of us not in the construction ind...

The new Civic precinct on Mercer St, due to start construction this year (however Geelong Council is in a questionable state at the moment) My office has done some work on this, pushing for more focus on the public realm. Geelong lacks 'Melbourne' type public spaces, which really isn't helping the c...

The new GMHBA HQ on Moorabol St, construction will commence this month. The building is 8 levels, around 40- 45m tall. This will be the 4th high-rise
to be built in the main town centre. I am particularly excited for this development as it will offer significant densification.

Simple enough, tell us how you lost it, lets have some fun.
I was 17, lost mine on a riverbed during the arvo. After about 22 unforgettable seconds of doing the deed, a junkie with his love child holding a beer slabbed randomly walked by.
