From down the river the tower actually looks quite dominating at night. Image

This has such an impact from all angles, but especially from the airport.

It's really prominent from Port Road in Hindmarsh now too.

It really looks half the size of what it should be. I hope it won't be one of those buildings that always look unfinished.

Well, it probably could've gone to at least 140m perhaps even 145m max but that would've been pushing the restrictive height limits imposed by you know what. Two buildings currently being finished in Pirie and King Willam Streets (without me naming them) are the ones that could've been twice the height as you say. We got to live with what we got.

A second tower will not improve the conditions within the plaza. A 3-storey building, as approved, is somewhat more harmonious than a 100 metre tower will be.
Looks like the horse is bolted, especially with Malinauskas' backing.

According to today's In-Daily a proposal for a second tower has been lodged with the Government by Walker Corp.

No height or other details are in the article. Probably the announcement timing is aligned to the topping out of Tower 1 and the publicity around its high-end tenancies.

Imagine how good a second tower would look if we got the architecture right.

The river bank is south Australias cultural and identity boulevard, make this right and we'll be the talk of the country
