It's a shame this all revolves around a carpark.

I remember they wouldn't build a new casino until they said they would build them a Carpark though

Correct... And they are, it’s agreed in contract. It’s just that one will be ready before the other.

And I bet that wasn't supposed to happen and there'll be repercussions behind the scenes.

Nice views but any chance of one colour of grass in elder park preferably green. It looks shocking. It should really resemble Parliament House Canberra or the West End Brewery river grass. I know all the events that are held there cause it.

What usually happens when one is hosting back to back events in a space since before Christmas. I must say, Elder Park is a great place to host certain public events, but I can't understand for the life of me why there isn't more use of the other parks that exist within the parklands especially when music festivals are now using Elder Park?

It could do with Elder Park having by far the best public transport options with train station, tram & bus at its door.

Heavy use aside, the ACC staff have no idea about coring or fertilising lawns. It shows in virtually every open grass space. Consistent irrigation is also an issue.

I really like the glass on this building, but Adelaide has SO MUCH brown going on!

Reminds me a lot of the design and glass treatment on Prima Pearl in Melbourne.

Yep. Not to take this thread too far off track, but I think this was the type of glass many of us were expecting on Vue :?

Great shot Plasmatron. Actually gives the Intercontinental some scale and context too, making it less intrusive from that angle. Looking forward to seeing the casino hotel lit up at night too when completed.
