I always thought the parliament building could do with a publicly accessible dome like the German Reichstag https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? ... prov=rarw1

It certainly could increase the number of visitors to the building....

As per the article above, Adelaide is exempt from the foreign student cap.

afaik it's not an exemption, it's just that the imposed individual cap for the unis in Adelaide are not that binding.
Problem is that they can revise those at will...

Though the images provided to Advertiser look slightly different than the ones on the project website, https://trinitycity.com.au/ ..... A lot more glass on the façade and revealing a surprising amount of car parking for a student housing tower right next to the university campus..... Though the web...

This appears now to be a student housing complex.... Trinity Church site set for $350m student tower Adelaide’s largest student accommodation facility would tower above the state’s oldest church as a part of a new $350m vision for a historic CBD site. https://content.api.news/v3/images/bin/68cbccd39...

I don't understand why when they build a multi level car park, it's front and center? Wait, where do you see a car park in these renders? There is one building that looks at first glance design wise like one, but it's labelled "civic" and seems to actually host community center type of ac...

What will be the twin towers, going up together, captured on 11 August: VideoCapture_20240822-221824.jpg The one to the left is the lifts and stairs as well as "services", the one to the right I believe is again "services", the rubbish service, and more stairs. Thanks for the in...

Not just a 'golden gatehouse' but actually the swimming pool and outdoor leisure facilities for the hotel in the submitted and approved plans to state planning. Walked past a couple of days ago and it looks as though this is not to be included in the final product which is very disappointing, espec...

Bikeways, plural? ACC can’t even figure out where to build an east-west bikeway, let alone second north-south one!

One going north, and one going south makes two, ergo plural...

I suppose the building doesn’t have to be approved… Keystone Tower isn’t approved yet. The 100m+ proposal on Franklin Street has a hotel component from memory. That could be a possibility too. Actually the 'Grote&Gouger' development (the former post sorting area) developed by Gurner has suppose...

A fun guessing game: From The Advertiser article on the Marriott GPO hotel: The world’s largest hotel chain has signed a deal to establish a third hotel in Adelaide as it prepares to open its flagship Marriott brand in the historic GPO building in August. Marriott International will also open a West...

A little crane this morning...

What's the metal colour of the main front doors?
Currently they are fairly dominating, so having the ramps in the same colour might complement them.

Also, I loved the cafe in that basement under the front building (for the short time it was operating). Do you know what is planned for that space?

So yes, they will be getting rid of the ramp in favour of stairs and lift. Sadly, it doesn't look like they're doing anything to the weird grassy tiered area, so the new stairs will still lead down to an unresolved space. I don't mind that bit - I always presumed it was a nod to the old amphitheate...

So exciting! Looking forward to this. When MicBara says "managing traffic", would that mean moving the lane briefly onto the North Terrace tramlines? Navigating that would be difficult with how close the site is to the University stop. I remember Adelaidean took up a couple of lanes on Fr...
