Just in from Paul Pruszinski
D64 Currie Street has full Planning approval from the DAC. Discussions with builders and operators are well advanced, and it is likely a builder will be appointed to work with the design team early next year.
Cheers all round.

That figure represents its height above sea level.

Makris Group are not a building contractor, they are property developers. From reading what Howie wrote, it sounds like those details are still to be sorted.

The Mattioli Group are developers too, but yeah, they generally don't mess around.

The difference with this development is that it's a hotel, so there won't be a need to secure commercial tenants or residential owners/investors (unless they're selling hotel rooms). If they've secured a hotel chain to run the hotel, it should proceed as quickly as these things can.

High-rise hotel a sign of change

* Daniel Wills

APPROVAL of a 22-storey hotel proves the new City Council has a progressive outlook, architects say.

The state's Development Assessment Commission has passed plans for a 22-storey hotel on Currie St following a recommendation for approval from the City Council's planning board.

Pruszinski Architects managing director Paul Pruszinski said the council's support sent a positive message to the market that Adelaide was open for business.

"We went through a period throughout the global financial crisis where the council supported absolutely nothing that we put up," Mr Pruszinski told The Advertiser.

"We're certainly seeing a changed attitude with the new council. We're hopeful that will continue and the signs are there that it will.

"Those that are there have got the message that the public do want development and they do want the city to grow."

The council's Development Assessment Panel lost powers to block building projects valued more than $10 million in 2008 following controversy over its rejection of the Tower 8 development on Franklin St.

However, it is still asked to pass comment on plans for all city projects.

Mr Pruszinski last year won approval from the Commission to build a 13-storey office block on Light Square branded "too high" by the council panel.

City Council elections in November resulted in wholesale change and installation of development advocate Stephen Yarwood as Lord Mayor.

"We're more than happy to put those people behind us and look forward to the council being a bit less anti-development," Mr Pruszinski said.

Mr Pruszinski said there was significant capacity for new development in the city and allowing construction of taller buildings would encourage adventurous architecture.

"If you want good design in Adelaide, you have to let developers find some money, and the only way to find money is in height, because we don't have extra area," he said.

The 82m-high Currie St hotel will become the seventh tallest building in Adelaide and discussions have started with several potential tenants.

I spoke to one of the architects at Pruszinski about a month or so ago and they said that they are having to make some design changes before starting construction.

Also, a bit away from the topic but still, they also told me that they are having a website made at the moment :D Hopefully thats up an running soon!
