What the hell is that supposed to be? Well, we can only hope this proposal is overlooked/ignored (especially since the Makris Group CEO didn't even want to comment on it), and they get a move-along with bringing the previous design into fruition...

That proposal looks nothing more than a 5 year old's drawing of a very big house.

It's been declared a "Major Project" so it needs State approval rather than ACC.

Don't worry, I thought the same thing when I heard it got Major Project status.

That is the most uninspiring design I have ever seen.

:wank: :wank: :wank: :wank:

When the rest of the world settles with curvature, looped pedestrian bride, 3-D roof, we in Adelaide, only gets shit boxes all the time.

The proposal by councillor Wilkinson represents everything wrong with the Adelaide mentallity. I cannot understand how we are respecting our 'heritage' by building ugly, uninspiring boxes. Wake up ACC!

Hahahaha sure is frightful, nearly as frightfully bad as that
crap horror film i watched the other night on channel 10
House of 1000 Corpses...

Drove past yesterday morning after dropping my wife
at work in town and they had some photographer
taking a picture of some sheila with a placard
facing the makris development billboard with the
words "ITS A DONE DEAL"

Maybe she is referring to the Governments pending
approval of the Makris plan.
