[COM] Conservatory on Hindmarsh | 62m | 18lvls | Mixed Use

[Pistol]

I don't think it will considering they have sold over 50% of the apartments.

[Will]

Residential projects rarely start on 'time'. This one is no exception.

I remember back in 2000, Urban Construct had said that construction of Embassy would start in February, 2000. Construction actually began in July 2000.

In the advertiser today they mentioned about Conservatory on Hindmarsh. Demolition will begin next week, taking 2 1/2 months to remove the old building. Then construction commences. 60pc has been sold off the plan.

Well its about bloody time!!!

[Ben]

That makes me very happy!

Not wanting to be fussy about 1 level, but the paper says it is 19 levels and the thread title says 18.

Can someone please clarify this for me?

[Ben]

Found this document which mentions the original proposal was 21 storys however it was knocked back and approved at 19.

Also mentions that the top level apartment is on the 18th level.

A nineteen storey apartment building, which includes 9 levels of apartments, 5 levels of commercial space and 4 levels of car parking

So i wonder where the additional level came from?

[Ben]

Ground floor retail I assume...

Based on that document, the height on the thread title should be changed to 61.8m.

Hmm thats a big difference between 68m and 61m

Anyway it will be good to finally see some activity at that site, plus another crane for the CBD

[Ben]

No action on site today....

Would have been very surprised if I had seen any.

[Shuz]

So this is a goer? Will be nice to see the cranes up in the East End.
Conservatory, Wallis, Aurora, Planet towers all going up Me happy Jan.

Walked past it today, not a sign of activity. Display centre is still open, though.

[Ben]

Went into the display office at lunch and was told demolision will start next week (commencing 18th June) for about 6 weeks and then construction will commence.
