CULWULLA July 1st, 2004, 02:53 AM Yet another 300footer fro the ever expanding Broadbeach!
this 28levl/90m tower will stand adjacent to the 33storey/105m carmel by the Sea.
i luke the sweeping curve! this one along with ULTRA & CRYSTAL Towers, southern BB sure will look impressive!

Sharma July 1st, 2004, 03:16 AM Wow!!!
Is this different from the one at the corner at Monteray Plaza... the one with the spiral features?
Confused with all the activity happening at broad beach!
It is a 34 storey tower built with glass with the wave like design.
Will scan a photo later
Sharma July 1st, 2004, 03:18 AM have we any more info on this one
http://www.gcda.org.au/boomswitch.html
MrTall July 1st, 2004, 09:45 AM Well what can we say...another week, another Broadbeach tower proposal! Looks great too.
Mr MacPhisto July 1st, 2004, 10:03 AM Wow, look at the curves.
Broadbeach seems to have found it's niche.
Muse July 1st, 2004, 10:40 AM have we any more info on this one
http://www.gcda.org.au/boomswitch.htmlSharma, your posts in this thread are in reference to The Wave, Broadbeach. Here is the link: http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=112182
There seems to be a new tower announced for Broadbeach every other week. Amazing.
Trances July 1st, 2004, 10:45 AM yep mus was thinking the same thing
SydneyDude July 1st, 2004, 02:24 PM News like this hardly excites me anymore... we are all very very spoiled...
Mr MacPhisto July 4th, 2004, 01:20 PM Carmel's a lonely girl at the moment.
http://img36.photobucket.com/albums/v108/n4214439/Carmel.jpg
Which side's the new tower going Cul?
Trances July 4th, 2004, 01:28 PM News like this hardly excites me anymore... we are all very very spoiled...
LOL. What we need a property market crash and a decade of down time to get you excited for this type of development again !
Whats the horse with wings ?
MrTall July 5th, 2004, 08:35 AM Which side's the new tower going Cul?
It'll be just to the north of Carmel. Should be snapped-up pretty quickly being beachfront and all.
CULWULLA July 5th, 2004, 09:33 AM yeah as mr tall said this tower is across the road to the north with Crystal Towers a block south! also Ultra isnt too far away either!
Mr MacPhisto July 5th, 2004, 01:03 PM ^Excellent. That really will make for a line of towers.
The G.C. July 8th, 2004, 02:40 AM Any word on a name for it yet?
It will block out Carmel's view north by the looks of it too.
It looks good however it is only a very small site that it is going to be built on I wonder what the facilities and parking will be like?
CULWULLA November 2nd, 2004, 06:49 AM This project made news again this week in GC bulletin.It mentions how APG (Australian property group) from Canberra is readying for the realease of the $100mil tower. They are already building Brisbanes tallest atm- AURORA.
This is great news for property market on GC.
the new colour render is from another angle. ill scan tommorrow.
cheers
CULWULLA November 2nd, 2004, 11:19 PM sure is differenrt.

Adam BK November 3rd, 2004, 07:21 AM Wow :) ....looks much better then I was expecting...love the curves
Trances November 3rd, 2004, 03:26 PM yes looks so great very happy with desgin and flat white look
MrTall November 3rd, 2004, 04:26 PM Yeah, looks great. But you'd have to say hi to your neighbours everyday. (Which is OK if they're not Victorian, mind you ;) )
Trances November 3rd, 2004, 04:29 PM hmm yes would have to curve the other way to avoid that
MrTall November 5th, 2004, 10:26 AM Just had a look at PRD's website and they are calling this one "Verve".
CULWULLA November 5th, 2004, 01:47 PM thanx mr tall. verve sounds ok. what about verve 501?
MrTall November 5th, 2004, 01:50 PM Yeah, the Melburnianites will be up in arms when they learn of this!

Sometimes, the things that make Gold Coast living so desirable also compromise the quality of life of its permanent residents.
Tourism may pay the Gold Coast's metaphorical rent, but most of us would prefer not to live next door to where the rent payers are partying.
At Verve Broadbeach, you'll put such concerns and the rest of the Gold Coast behind you.
Here, in a prestigious beachfront apartment community of long term neighbours seeking the same superior quality of life as you, you'll enjoy Gold Coast living as it should be.
Verve Broadbeach is an architectural masterpiece, perfectly attuned to its unique Broadbeach site on Old Burleigh Road. The building features ground level residents only landscaped gardens and terraces, below sweeping curved balconies with breath taking 200 degree views of beach and ocean.
Verve Broadbeach will offer a range of spacious one, two and three bedroom apartments, all with study; some three bedroom apartments occupying entire floors of their own; and a magnificent full floor penthouse with internal stairs to its own private roof terrace with luxury facilities.
This is an address with everything the Gold Coast offers at your fingertips, yet insulated from its excesses. If you'd value the luxury of enjoying the good life without compromise, you'll certainly value the opportunity to learn more about Verve Broadbeach now.

Oriolus October 13th, 2005, 02:32 AM I see Matrix is building this as well (in addition to Reflections on the Sea). I wish they'd cart their arses up to Townsville and make a start on the 12-month overdue Gateway.
But they do some very comprehensive construction updates - the kind of photos that make you go "why the hell would anyone want to see a photo of that?" Take a look at June pics here (http://www.matrixpm.com.au/projects/verve.htm)
Different render from Matrix.

It's just a comunications tower. I've never noticed before u mentioned it Cul so I don't think it's very tall. I think it's part of the Broadbeach police station.

thanks
Locke January 11th, 2007, 01:46 PM Saw this today, it still has some paint to go, but it has scrubbed up nice. I was never a fan of this tower but now that it is done, it's looking not too shabby at all!
neilo63 January 12th, 2007, 09:57 AM in this instance, more time does = better finished product.
CULWULLA January 12th, 2007, 10:01 AM i just think its unusual design. the bldg is only 6m wide and only 1 apartment ocupies each floor/ really good marketing.
DeejayT January 30th, 2007, 06:41 AM I like the front, but I think the back is a bit plain
