Haven't got a photo but just drove by and they have made it around the corner - not really
too much to go now till this is finished

yes just one section left now. Covers the whole hungry jacks sign which surprises me. Is quite dominant when looking down the mall.

I tried checking the webcam today to see the construction in progress ( http://www.cityofadelaide.com.au/script ... =PC_110114 ) but it appears the entire ACC website is down!!

Sorry, I would have gone in and taken some photos, however Ive had the worst hangover ever in my history. It was so bad Im gonna blame it on food poisoning The chicken was a bit under-cooked now i remember
This is the 1st time Ive been able to sit upright since last night

Been celebrating Port's win have we? lol

Weather permitting, it appears the main construction will be complete on sunday Aug 31. Hope this means the launch can be brought forward. The ACC website says "End-October" as the estimated start date...

haha, I could only go for the 1st 3 quarters and then I had to go to a big work function at the Convention Centre. I thought I wasn't drinking over the top, but mixing white wine with beer is a no no, and I reckon that chicken wasn't right

Worst thing is a couple of times I slightly missed the toilet bowl today. ewwwwwww. Ok thats more than enough info

Looks like maybe 1 more week of installation for the convergence is needed, I think

Is it just me or are there two 'pixels' missing from the bottom row on the corner?

Yep, I noticed that today.

Also, the bottom row doesn't appear to have lights on them. Then again, at the low height they are at, lights for the bottom row would probably get stolen.

I dont think they were planning to light the bottom row - the artist impressions on the ACC website confirms this
i dont know why those panels are missing - maybe to give the hungry jacks sign a bit more time before it is covered

There's three "pixels" missing. Maybe they were damaged when installed? I can understand why the bottom row is not lit, each row covers the led arrays of the one above, so the bottom row has none.

There's only one column of panels left to be installed. That was damn quick. I wonder how long after next weekend it will take to put it all together?

is it one or two sections remaining? looking via the webcam it appears it will cover the entire pulteney st side of the carpark?

I dont think so, its only covering the 1st half section of the car park on the Pulteney Street side.

They still need to do a bit of work on the lowest level of the panels, because atm they havent attached the LED projectors to light up the bottom row yet. All the above panels get their projector from the below panel, so I guess they need to install a row of arms of projectors just below the bottom panels. Im assuming when they do this they will fix up those 3 missing panels.

not long now
