The foundation will be poured this saturday night. Somewhere near 3500-4000m3.

this one is all go

pics from today's big hole

Thanks for the pics. Think we can safely say this is now U/C.

Now that a hole!!

Love it

nice pic. I didn't think the hole would be that big

Interesting that they have sloped retaining walls there. Any clue as to why?

Guess this can now be changed to: U/C

Thanks for the update jk1237. The site sure is large and they are not mucking around. Can't wait to see this one going up. Will really change Adelaide's skyline.

I am guessing a large part of this underground section will be parking. Maybe the sloped retaining walls are designed to aid ventilation of the car park??? Not sure though just a guess.

Fantastic pics!!

My guess is that we'll see a core mounted crane for this tower, and I doubt we'll see a crane here until early next year too.

Hi All, Long time lurker of the site here, thought I'd finally register. I live and work in the city so typically get to see a lot of the developments on a daily basis.

Anyway, happened to walk past this site this morning... and the crane base sections were being delivered. The sections were black, if that helps! So, I guess the crane will go up in the coming weeks.

Thanks for the info Cream and welcome. Sounds good.

Could be the crane from Thompson Playford? Will it be a hammerhead or tower crane considering the height and Airport restrictions I wonder?

Awesome - thanks for the info!

There's go my crane next year theory out the window!!! It'll be good to see a Multiplex crane back on the Adelaide Skyline!

My guess its a crane from the Southern Cross 2 tower in Melbourne.

It's a big mother.

They have started erecting the first 3 section of the base and from the size of the frameowrk will be quite a large crane. I am thinking Favco but who knows.

Really busy site now and it will be great to get some new building height west of the cbd

It's wierd.

Looking at yesterday's pic, you can't see a crane base anywhere? Unless it's in the core formwork?
