Wonder if we could start up a petition to get it up and running for Christmas 2012.
Adelaide's Premier Development and Construction Site

The decision makers at Westpac are most likely old fashioned folk. Nothing beats a signed petition, or a terse letter stating many people are upset...crawf wrote:Wouldn't hurt, and even spread it through social media?

In my opinion, it was pretty average. Google images for "Hong Kong Xmas lights" and have a look at what they do to some of their high rise buildings at Xmas time.crawf wrote:Big loss, it was great seeing this as a kid. It was a unique Adelaide tradition, hopefully one day it will return or even in a new future high rise office buildingMaximus wrote:Another lost 'event'... The Christmas (Xmas tree) and Easter (the cross) light displays using the windows of the State Bank / Bank SA / Santos building. I don't think this has happened since Westpac took over the naming rights. Which is a great shame, IMHO. The Christmas tree in particular looked very cool and was visible from lots of locations outside the CBD.
Anyone else feel that this is a bit of a sad loss?
The tree has been set up in the square for over a week now, the construction is going on around it, but they haven't decorated the tree at all yet.ml69 wrote:A big lighted Xmas tree like the one in the above post would look fantastic in the new Victoria Square however!!
