There are people who have commented on the post on the website saying similar things to this guy such as "There is no development in the CBD, My office overlooks the CBD and there is nothing happening".

I'm starting to think that maybe we wanted development so bad we are actually imagining it and only people on this forum can see it??

I guess it depends on which way your office faces... the western side of the CBD is seeing significantly more development than the eastern side at the moment, which is the opposite to how the pattern of development previously was.

i like 'Adders' and have been using it with my interstate friends for a good decade or more. They've even started saying it.
Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Normally I wouldn't pay something like this any attention, but I felt with such inaccuracies it needed to be seen to be believed. As well as the fact that shit like that is actually being written about Adelaide, and recently.
