News & Discussion: Low/Mid-Rise CBD Development

There's been a site cleared and a piling rig working today on Coglin Street near the markets. Anyone know what's going on there?

Gnrc_louis mentioned this on the last page. 3 level building of shops/restaurants. This is the site: viewtopic.php?t=6358&start=15

Speaking of which, has anyone seen the plans?

Demo almost complete on the sixth hurtle and co site, so imagine this one will start construction soon.

This will be the last one

Well, it is being advertised as the last. It will be the last one on Hurtle Square itself... most likely - as there aren't any further easily developable sites there. However, they aren't just going to stop building these developments - it is clearly quite a successful model. We already know another one is in the works around the block on the corner of Frome and Angus streets, and I think somewhere else as well.

Shame they can’t buy out those ugly early 90s Karadis developed three storey townhouses on the south-west corner. There’s also the printers site near Coda which might eventually get developed.

8 Level building for 17 Hutt Street

It's unfortunate to lose the villa from that row as it's a lovely streetscape contribution. But it hasn't been given even local heritage status. I suppose I can't be too sad as Adelaide is not shy of similar examples, and the development is for a worthy cause.

This has been recommended for approval at the next SCAP:

The Government Architect recommended a condition to bind demolition to construction, but is not likely to be adopted as it is outside the remit. But given the institutional backing, I doubt demolition in isolation would occur.

Are they painting or tiling the 'brickwork' on the brick-patterned precast? I mean, they needed to do something as the precast pattern was terribly mismatched at the joints when I last looked, but these options seem...not ideal?

Patterned precast is instantly noticable when you see the joins of the panels. Looks tacky af

It didn't look like paint when I visited. I suppose it could be tiles.

Edit: went to look again. It's not super obvious what the color is but it looks more like paint that anything else on closer inspection.

Proposal for the vacant block at 76 South Tce: "Construct ten level mixed use building comprising of nine apartments and office at ground level." South Tce is really getting a nice level of density now, will be good to see East Tce follow suit.

Still not really there though. I had considered buying a place on South Tce last year but decided against it because of how far it was away from everything. I can't imagine having to walk from that spot all the way to Rundle Mall for the nearest full supermarket and general retail. Suppose things should be better when Market Square is done unless they end up putting a small hipster supermarket in there instead of a replacement to the Coles we lost.
