Target didn't exist in the city until after the Myer Centre opened. Myer BTW had 2 stores while the Centre was being built - they used the old Malcolm Reid site on Hindley street as well.
Wheres that?, is that the historic buiding on the corner of Leigh Street, where priceline phamacy is?

That is the lovely building between the horrid silver and red building on the corner of KWS and Hindley and the carpark on Hindley. It now houses Subway, Gloria Jeans, Burp etc. on the ground floor and has just been restored and renovated to house short stay apartments above.

If anyone has the latest Google Earth installed (i.e. 4x), here's something cool to try... goto Adelaide, hit Control-Alt-A ... you'll be pleasantly surprised. 8)

It sure is.. i've been trying to land at Adelaide Airport, and keep hitting the ground. I want to see what sort of clearance we'll need on the city's west in an emergency.

I know it drives my wife mad. :lol: But someone's gotta do it.

By the way, Adelaide now has overtaken Melbourne in number of models and we're three away from Sydney. Hopefully in a few weeks, we'll claim #1 position in Australia.

Hey guys.. got a favour to ask you all.

Can I ask that you give the collection and/or any models you like a 'rating' if you like them?

Link to the Adelaide Collection.

This will help get a little recognition of little Adelaide around the place.. mind you Adelaide already has a very high standing in the 3d modelling community.
