Looks good. Kent Town is going to look very different in the next decade as we inevitably see more projects like this going up.

Fingers crossed. This would be a great addition to not only Kent town but inner city in general

The project has been cancelled, according to The Advertiser, and the developer wants to sell the site.

Royal Hotel site in Kent Town put on the market by Flagship Property

Plans to build two apartment towers next to the historic Royal Hotel at Kent Town have been shelved, with developers looking to offload the site less than a month after securing planning approval for the project.

Victorian developer Flagship Property Holdings was behind plans to build 192 apartments across two buildings - one scaling 15 storeys immediately adjacent to the former Royal Hotel and another rising 14 storeys further east on North Tce.

The state government’s development agency, Renewal SA, had agreed to underwrite the sale of 35 affordable housing apartments in the development, while the 146-year old pub was to be restored for alternative uses after closing in 2019 following the collapse of previous operator Entertainment Venues Australia.

Flagship’s planned sale of the site follows close to a decade of ownership, with the company paying $7.53m to acquire it in 2014.

The State Commission Assessment Panel signed off on the developer’s latest plans on May 24, eight years after it won its first approval for high rise development at the site.

An earlier version of its current plan was unveiled in December 2021, valued at the time at $105m, and including car sharing, electric vehicle charging and bike storage facilities.

Flagship’s current approvals include car parking spaces for more than 200 vehicles and a communal open space for residents on the third level.

Food and beverage outlets were envisaged for the ground floor of the towers, which were to include 40 apartments classed as affordable housing as well as six specialist disability housing residences.

Mr Mills said the site’s flexible zoning supported a wide range of potential developments including traditional and build-to-rent apartments, student accommodation, offices and hotel.

Cheers. I'm not overly surprised I guess -their website has been down for months and they sold the Penny Place commercial development late last year, so not sure what's happening with them as a developer more broadly?

How utterly disappointing. I’ve been waiting patiently for this one to start.

It sure is disappointing but I just couldn't get over the fact that all of those lovely north facing apartments would look out at 19 North Tce. It would have to play havoc with the feasibility wouldn't it?

I've longed wished someone would buy up North Terrace House and Romilly House, and do a full gutting and restoration of both into a single complex. Something similar to the (now closed) Claska Hotel in Tokyo which overhauled the old Hotel Meguro.
