Vinny has a point though. Is a discount store full of cheap goods what you would expect to find in what is referred to a premier shopping precinct? If we're trying to encourage more workers to move into the CBD then there needs to be a range of options available for people of all socio-economic lev...

Yeah, there's no way a luxury hotel in the tallest building in the city, with an observatory on the roof, across the road from the cultural precinct & a block away from Rundle Mall could POSSIBLY run at a profit. TERRIBLE business case.

Lots of anti-development reactions on this forum lately.

Absolutely terrible. Such prime real estate in a market begging for more apartments & hotel rooms & THAT'S the best they could come up with.

Man, the STA didn't even TRY to maintain their stations, did they?

Not sure when it happened, but the arcade under the Realm Apartments is FINALLY open again and... yeesh!

Still, 1 tenant is better than 0 tenants, I guess!

People complaining about Perth getting huge infrastructure upgrades are failing to understand that the 787 Dreamliners can fly non-stop from Perth to London, Rome & a number of other potential European capitals, all of which are too far from Adelaide to reach safely. With these upgrades, a trip ...

Rex to begin flights to Perth 3 times per week starting next month

The balls of these people to describe a single house as "social housing". Disappointing that a large charity like the Salvos can own such a large parcel of land in the CBD and, until now, have done so little with it.

A couple of photos from today - not easy to get a decent shot with the covering around the site.

One whole worker on site! Things are really cooking now!

Great idea, great location right near the edge of the city, nice use of the old hotel.

Watch the Walkerville Council blow this to pieces.

I knew SOMEBODY would bugger this up, at least...
