Click for bigger. Was hot and hazy so had to do some editing meaning colours may be a bit off.

I had a very clear view of this building from the Gilles Street Primary School car park when I was lining up to vote on Saturday.

A different perspective on this one:



I'm a bit confused by this one as from some angles (above included) it looks quite interesting. However, from others it still looks like a turd:

At some angles, it looks taller than 119m

Well, clearly there isn’t likely to be as much of a demand for student accommodation as pre-COVID. Just stumbled on this article by RealEstate.com, it seems the owners of this have opted to rent these out as ‘shared living’ during the rental crisis. Hats off to them, I think this kind of innovative flexibility is important, especially when there’s no current big demand in the market for student accommodation but a dire need for affordable rental living on the other side of the coin. I just wish the apartment options were better designed for this rather than the student accommodation shoeboxes that they are.

I say bulldoze it and start again.

Almost anything would be better than this trite.

It's really not a bad development. I know heaps of people who live in these sorts of apartments.

I think it's telling that the RE agent hasn't included any pictures or layouts of the actual accommodation!

It's really not that bad. Calm down. https://www.switchliving.com.au/adelaide-central/

Oh I’m not talking about the internal fit out, which I hear isn’t bad. I’m talking about the exterior.

I haven't walked past this at street level yet..... but like I said earlier, I think this looks pretty good! Purely from a skyline-nerd perspective

[VinyTapestry849]

It looks much taller from street level than it does from far away at its actual height.

A few pics from a recent visit of mine to Adelaide. Looks half decent in the right light..

Unfortunately, they didn't include pigeon spikes in their restoration of the heritage façade so it's already looking a bit shabby.

Also worth noting that the North Terrace pavement was recently repaired/'made good' out front of Yugo, the other student tower, so hopefully it's in the works here too.
