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

I would say since this is already approved its all too late it more just a delaying tactic. Delay student tower as long as possible so appartments in Adelaidean sell and no building visible during build process. After Adelaidean is built/completed buff up comes the Student accommodation no longer th...

Surely i would have expected that whoever is providing finance eg bank, building society, superannuation fund etc would ensure that the builder/developer has paid some level of insurance prior to proceeding to ensure that the building is built/finished/handed over even in the event the builder goes ...

[PRO] Re: Kangaroo Island Bridge - $5b

Let’s not fuss over design and whether 4 or 2 lanes is required more importantly it about a feasibility study for a bridge. Once you factor in tourism, jobs, agriculture/aquaculture and land prices I reckon it is quite feasible. Would you plan on having a holiday home on KI most likely not but with ...

Its amazing how St Aloysius College and Fire Department take up so much prime space close to the central square in the city. Kodo is looking amazing just lonely. Its quite obvious that Government needs to continue its stamp duty concessions and incentives for inner city living. Hopefully within 10 y...

With the Casino Upgrade and other developments this should go ahead.
It also seems the are thinking of a reasonable size 12-15k as its gone from 150mil to a 300mil proposal. With tennis the need to get a ATP 500 or ATP 1000 event here

Some of these developers need to look outside the box - rather than just a standard highrise box of appartments regardless of fittings might be able to distinguish itself from others by having an outdoor courtyard with barbecue facilities, common pool, common gym, movie theatre, possibly restaurants...

Pity if thats the case was hoping it would fill a void in the southern skyline. However the developer only has themselves to blame because upfront marketing noting its aimed at becoming a high rise retirement village would have put of a lot of potential buyers not to mention even office occupiers.

Re: U/C: Tonsley Park Redevelopment | $1b

Good to see some grass and trees. Hopefully there is also a few cafes restaurants and retail. Pity the majority of the site not like this. The Tafe should have been multi storey too.

Whilst exciting news the capacity they are talking of is on the small side. It should be somewhere between 12,000-15,000 to cater for major tennis, basketball and concerts. They should get rid of current entertainment center, where they could continue the Bowden development, and possibly also replac...
