Looking very boxy and unimpressive in terms of design. For a start they should reduce the bulk and increase the height. Maybe they should attempt to acquire the properties on the end of the block, so as to increase the site size and floor space ratio.

Hmmm, quite tall for that part of town and would look quite pronounced passing it on the freeway. Yeah, a bit boxey.

http://www.sayhey.co.uk/invboard/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif Gee, I didn't think they built them like that anymore.

how fucking sad! perth architecture is getting sadder and shittier by the fucking day! was looking for something good!
reduce bulk, add height!

if this gets built, i will be ashamed to call perth my city!

just going back about a year i remember seeing 2 other projects for this end of town. does any one know what happend to them?

I like Perth,and I don't really like to be critical of it because I don't live there and I don't want to piss you guys off.......but I really hate the look of that building.Honestly,how much is it going to cost to make it a bit more presentable so that it is not just an eyesore.I think that sometimes we forget that a building like this can't just be removed like a rubbish can or a cigarrete butt on the footpath.It is there for a looooong time,The developers of these buildings obviously don't give a shit what they are doing to the city in the long term,or even the cityscape in the short term.

i agree with you 110%! i sure will be writing to the council about it and i hope some of you do too!

I'm going to write to the council.

I'm going to say that if this building gets off the ground I will reconsider ever migrating to their city.

It's seems so short sighted to allow crap like this........shame,shame on them.

You Can E-Mail The Selling Agent (Mark Hay Realty) via.... (scroll down) http://www.realestate.com.au/cgi-bin/rsearch?a=o&ag=&s=wa&c=53107830&tm=1093100299&id=101801308&f=30&p=30&t=res&ty=&snf=rbs&cu=&fmt=&header=

that mark hay is fucking up the west end........ this looks like a moscow style building..... shit..... the roof suck and it looks short and squat........ talk about sticking it up MirvacFini......... its next door to their hq :)

mark hay is selling agent not developer, and it will only get up if people buy it, so its really up to the people of perth if they want a quality building or a second rate one, to fat needs more height, and way to bland and bulky, these sorts of buildings are the ones that help scare people at scarborough probably

fuk its not like they have limits in that end of town. make it taller and cut off some of that bulk and modernise the facade.
if i was adrian fini i would spit on that!

It needs to be taller,stepped somehow,and some curves wouldn't go astray along with a more intersting street frontage-expensive maybe,but should quality really get compromised over the long term image/feel of the CBD.........?

That gentlemen,is the question I ask you.

i think it has 140 aprox units, so that could help give some life to the great QV1 plaza on weekends, and if it had a great design it could help revitalise the city, more cafes/restaurants and shops at ground floor would be great, half the bulk and make it 2 times taller, with a more cutting edge design, the building isn't ugly just boring to tears, perth's skyline has a chance to go a higher quality to the rest of australia and bland buildings like this will hold us back

Exactly,but it needs to start filtering out the bad/bland stuff now-before everyone takes lesser quality buildings for granted and they pop up all over the CBD.

I hope I'm not sounding like a nimby,I just want the best for Perth,thats all-I would rather all the CBD streets were lined with 50 storey buildings right up to the footpath,that were actually intersting,rather than bland 18 - 25 storey buildings that have big setbacks and all the other bare minimum requirements to get approved.

imo perths apartments market is alot different thans s, m & b, most towers in perth and quality with river views that get built, i don't think our market is sooo strong that people will just buy crap to be in an apartment, look at box on hay street, that is classy and living their is a part of someones image because its funky and quality and that sold well, we really need to change the nimbys from not supporting high rise full stop but learning to asses developments on their merits making sure the great stuff gets up and the bland and boring doesen't I think its great people are getting interested in architecture and we should demand the best to create the best we can for a stunning city scenery wise and a Boutique city... laided back and relaxed is good but we need a vibrant heart!

and now that construction is moving again in perth we used to be like its over 10 levels lets get it up, now that we have construction its good to see we (forumers) are thinking more about quality and it would be good if the developers did that same, and think more about $$ and try and build an icon for the city or something that is going to add to the streetscape and street life and draw people into the city

Totally agree.

I just hope PCC do their part thats all.

im sure they will however i think its approved.

I offer my condolences on behalf of SA. It's sad that when you start getting some property investment happening, the bandwagoners come into town with this profit maximising slum crap. Lord knows it's happening to us now (eg globe apartments).

it was appoved and everyone in council voted for its approval:( thats fuked!

eami l igot from mark hay
Michael,
The artist impression of our development definatly does make the building look quite bulky and large. The building will actually improve the overall look of that part of Hay street and has set a benchmark for design. Giving residents large balconies to enjoy the outdoors.
Keep an eye out for a more recent artist impression or if you would like more information call us at 92257000

sounds like theyt couldnt give a fuck!:(

ask them to send out new renders thats one of the only meetings ive missed in a long time so i didn't get renders, and thanks for the effort dilaz thumbs up

yeah no probs. i just asked them and i'm awaiting a reply

complain again under a new name lol:D

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/mdilaz/haysttowrer.jpg

hey very retro! i like it!
ill add to ss.com asap!

u like it?? i thought you had a good taste in architecture!

approved

pcc are dickheads and peter natrass is a half-a-brain cause he lets develpments like this go ahead then bitches ie. like he did with pcec

It doesnt look that bad, but from the side I think it will look very bratislava ghetto.

0k my plans to make this better is to crete tower setbacks and some sort of roof feature and to get rid off that fuken / / / thing on the podium and replace it with a nice glass wall.

lol if only i were an architect

I dont mind it, though the tower is abit dull, should be more like the podium what has some colour and interesting parts, though should be more slender and taller, a more interesting roof, and more shape and less balconies

"

lol if only i were an architect
maybe you should consider doing it @ university, we need people like you in the development industry who have vision and passion:D

nah no demand atm + you need a fairly high T.E.R score. i wanna be a town planner anyway so i might be controlling these sorts of developemnts in the future

and say fuck planning schemes all development welcome in my council! hopefully a job like that will allow you to have some personal flare and not just be stuck with bland culdersac suburban design

if i get chucked out into the suburbs to create more low desnsity developments ill be quitting. im sure it wont tho since the govt wants to put a stop to sprawl in the future

i want grids back like in the inner city, i hate hate hate the new burbs where there is one entry and the rest is just culdersacks, we need steet trees in EVERY STREET too

the new burbs have the worst fuken street trees imo! if i were a subrub planner i would create large open bolevards lined with those fig looking trees and those cool looking urban trees for the houses + id make a minimal amount of cauldersacks

Trees are great for cities,Perth has some pretty nice tree lined streets too.

yeah I would have back lanes, one car per house, no parking in the streets, a huge canopy of trees, small but high quality open space, no front yards, no back yards, little setbacks, and main street with cafes, and service, and a small 'once a week' urban shopping centre, high frequency public transit, bike paths etc... drive up marmion ave north yuck roofs roofs roofs its all the same, no trees, a macdonalds here and there, a shopping centre here and there, cars oriented so so so sterile btw continue planning talk in network city

Trees are great for cities,Perth has some pretty nice tree lined streets too.
in the western burbs they are stunning, west perth is great, every street should be like that and not bloody ugly shurbs, nice europian trees, and if people have to have backyards they need dozens of huge tress, and urban jungle look, toronto is big but very very green, people keep cutting stuff down and it make thier homes look so so bland, the garnders on the new cheap home are fucken ugly like a little bland plant here and there... grrr

I Have vision of a st kilda road like entry into the CBD for wellignton street, just get some fucken cars of the road, and skrew local aussie trees and bring some nice europian ones in!
http://www.realestate.com.au/objects/props/0353/101850353al1094538616.jpg

There is too much concrete/tack in newer landscaping imo. Green is best.

yup i would delete a lane in that rd both sides and put a nice garden island there with a few shubs and euro trees

and concrete walls should have some art, graffiti, interesting materials etc.. cost is one factor and looks good is important to!!!

and we should follow QLD and crack right down on smoking, smoking is not cool anymore, smoking is out, not acceptable! vote with your voice, smoking sucks, say it again kiddies smoking sucks!!!

and i hate for developments like hemisphere put a big fence around it, other than adding some residents and density in the skyline it adds nothing to the CBD, needs ground floor cafes, art, and billboards etc.. to add interest to the streetscape

yup smokin is shit. it should be banned everywhere imo

yup the hemi is very 70's as far as the ground level goes. a bit sad

wrong thread buddy.

we have to to to much open space most is dead grass and a place for anti social behaviour, look at east perth the open space area isn't huge but its alot more effective than ones 100 times bigger because its high quality, quality is better than quantity

agreed!

Thats why Langley Park and Wellington Square should get planted with hundreds of trees,so they are like Hyde park.

Yes, It makes our city look shite. What purpose does a big blotch of grass do?

its something alot of dense asian cities don't have i guess, even if they dont over-run it with development, atleast some cafes etc.. could be put there, like the new restaurant on the esplanade

yeah the langly shits me

It's a great opportunity to make Perth BEST park,but something has to be done with it to get it there...........is it used for sports or something ?

Why cant we have a monumental fountain in the middle of the park or something defining for perth. Something like the bell tower but with a little more punch.

its used for nothin

we need more suburban high-rise like this one proposed in melbourne, esp near rail transit corridors
http://www.skyscrapercity.com/photopost/data/510/135mitcham.jpg

langley park is great for sport, but its in the bloody CBD, that much grass is even to much for the burbs, sesh:D

sydney has better suburban highrise than melbourne. something like that tower would look sweet around where the raffles is!

maybe we should do up langley park like melbourne (pics from stevemelbs site)

some more melbourne pics from stevemelbs site, perth could take some leasons from melbourne! i think going overseas/interstate really opens your eyes to how much better perth can and should be if the locals would get over thier 'layback' lifestyle spill, and let perth progress!

fight for progress:D

wish airfare wasnt so god damn expensive! then people with no so much money could afford to travel more often and im sure views on perth would change then!

people who haven't traveled probably don't know anydifferent and how other cities can function succesfully in different ways

elevations from dilaz
http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=131189

approved with completion in 2007, same developers as statton, strong demand from interstate

source?? should start in like march of next year.

btw for those who are interested they are selling apartments off at 82 royal street east perth.

btw the stratton developers are shit. all their buildings are too similar like haryy seidler.

the west australian property section.... (wednesday)

is there a good render?

the site--
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/mdilaz/DSC02077.jpg

man look at all those sprawling low rise crap, what a waste of space! like it or not but atleast it will bring abit of height to that part of town

its all prime developemnt sites tho.

so is that ugly arse freeway:D

mayby oneday if they decide to sink it until its out of the cbd it will become a good option to build on.

get rid of it alltogether a bloody shocking place for a freeway, its also divided so much of perth like leederville from west leederville, from above perth looks like a giant carpark so much bitumen for cars, this city is to car orientated, about 40% of land use is toward the mighty car....

perth lacks a lot in vison.

well cars are force though the CBD even if not going to the CBD adding to greenhouse gases in the CBD, we need more radial road like reid hwy so you don't have to pass through the CBD when not going to the CBD, we plan for the cheapest option in this city and the best shortterm one, not enough foresight about 100 years down the track...

perth could be better if the state govt and pcc work together.

haha good luck, the government departments can't even do that, some project have to get approval from like 6 different departments and take years and years to get approved....

its fucked!!!! i cant beleive how stinge the govt are in not helping pcc sink the rail line. id ratther the nmr stop at rockingham so the rail can be sunk!!

it need to be a marginal seat to get the dosh rolling, really all they care about is winning the next election, if they just did a good job then they would have nothing to worry about

they need to take risks!!!!!

fucken hell!!!

the facade is ok.. but too stumpy

yeah like westralian take 40% of each floor + some height

Thank you for your email.

Please see below further details on 996 Hay St Perth for your perusal. Please understand that the marketing is in the very early stages and therefore material is a little sparse:


Here are a few key points to assist you further: -


· An offer will fix the price of the apartment at today’s price and any increases through the duration of the project will not affect your contract price.

· A deposit of 10% is required or a Deposit Bond could be arranged (no deposit required) and nothing further until settlement in mid 2007.

· A unique pre-leased arrangement extending until 2013 is available.

· The apartments will be finished to a high standard and generally incorporate a choice of 2 bedrooms, 1 or 2 bathrooms, at least 1 balcony and car bay per apartment and are 85m² or larger in size with balconies ranging from 17m² to 25m².

· Facilities include a pool, spa, sauna, gymnasium, outdoor barbecue area, meeting room and cafe/restaurant along with Perth’s first 24 hour doorman/security service.

Views and aspects are a strong feature of this development and full glass height windows capture and highlight the views throughout the 20 storey complex. Cutting edge design, full wrap-around balconies and exotic spas to pamper you are also a leading feature of each individual apartment

As with any real estate transaction both timing and location are the greatest drivers to achieve profits. This opportunity delivers both those with exceptional clarity. Participating at this early stage ensures the choicest property with the greatest upside.

The location in the heart of the new “Resources Boom of the West End of Perth” is destined to yield exceptional returns in both rental and capital growth. To progress further please call myself or my assistant, Joanna Tennyson, to arrange a one on one appointment.

arrange an appointment and go and thump him........ stupid cunt

material isnt just sparse on the marketing.....

what i thought was a tender for condor towers construction might be for this project, it says hay street which street this project is on and a mid 07 completetion what this project says completion is for...so this might by starting constrction in march 05

hey just looking at that rendering above and the comments from mark, if you look closely you will see the floor to ceiling glass. so i think what the rendering DOESNT show is the REFLECTION you will get from either the sky or surrounding buildings, which means this building could end up having quite a nice blue tinge to it, and they may even colour or frost the glass balcony balastrading.

apart from being only 20 stories, the only thing i can really see wrong with this one is the flat roof, some tapering would really have given this one some character, but we dont have that many towers that look like this one right now, so it might add yet another dimension to perths skyline - all is not lost!

so how much is mark paying u?:D
i just did a quick sketch of a woodisde tower styled roof on this, it doesnt look that bad at all!

yeh a sign would be good, especially if it faces north or west, Perth's skyline will really start to take on a north-south dimension after this one and swan panorama.

If this building has full glass height windows then it will be great!. Looking at the render pic, I still can’t notice any windows though, besides on the dark grey shaded parts to it. It looks like it only has your normal door way out to the balconies which cannot be correct?..thats why it has that 'old block of flats look about it…BUT if it does have full glass windows at the balconies it should look just fine!. Also I think the ‘stumpyness might actually be a good thing for its location. It is opposite QV1 which is a fat ass..lol..so it may balance things out a bit. A thinner tower will look out of proportion next to QV1 plus it will spread some bulkiness out to Hay st.….
….so this tower may actually be a ‘god sent’ ..lol

imo browlie tower is shit hot compared to sprawl, I would prefer verticle shit holes that sprawling shit holes ie the northern suburbs... build up not out, i would prefer an ugly tower than another 200m of sprawling low density homes...

i can confirm this project is the one in the paper to construction will start in april so heres some more apartments for the central CBD core, and other 20 leveler and another off the terrace

pro property have now taken it over so start hasseling them instead of mark hay!:D

might be joint marketed? i got a marketing page in the letter box for statton so wonder if ill get one for this... statton sold well so i guess this will with construction already getting ready for major marketing, good to see confidence in perths apartment market

This is good news but I want to see another render pic. There is no way I would buy looking at that pic!..lol
I like and hope Murray and Hay will become little canyons of apartments..wouldn’t that be somethin!

yeah even this project will give that area a massive boost. there was another one planned for this end of town called sarah & cook. it must have fallen though tho but it was only 14 floors

i wonder if im related to Mark Hay

yeah even this project will give that area a massive boost. there was another one planned for this end of town called sarah & cook. it must have fallen though tho but it was only 14 floorsI spoke to the developer some time ago and it hasn't been canned. It's just in its very early stages - a keen director jumped the gun with the website. So it could happen, and probably will if 996 goes ahead.

emailed pro property and they are sending me out a booklet on it. should have some nice new pics of it

oh and incase anyone wants to know the tower is 64m high

this side of the skyline is set to get a good bulking up the towers arn't the best but the great thing is we have the glassy southern view and we are developing a dense northern views, its all good, statton and woodside are rapidly improving the northern aspect, as can be seen from leederville train station overpass, the more buildings the better, will slowly give perth that big city look, make the city look like more than just a place to work but a place to live and a hub for 24/7 activity...

They are have started marketing with a write up in the mark hay realty liftout in the weekend australian newspaper

www.ellement996.com.au says completion mid 2007 so should start mid 2005. also its 20 floors (17lv apartments).

Strange how they don’t have a render pic on their website????…well we know why, cos it looks fugugly hehe..However they do have this http://www.ellement996.com.au/apartments.asp …and you know what, it doesn’t look that stumpy after all ..lol

rocstar i think thats looking side on.

yeah, I just took a look at the floor plans and the building is more of a rectangle shape and not square as first thought. So it really shouldn't look that fat after all really.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/mdilaz/haysttowrer.jpg
eww

hopefully if it does turn out that bad the massive qv1 will make it look tiny. all that needs to change is the roof design and it will be cool,

there very, urban apartments.

heres something quick i did to show you all the difference a roof feature can make

http://img148.exs.cx/img148/3904/9966ov.jpg

i see what you mean, id rather have the crap one then nothing at all tho.

hmmm yeah it does look better but the only thing that needs to be changed is the part below the feature roof..lol

Good News!..Work to commence in April this year. Must be selling real fast. I think the success of these is due to its location. The Malls, Kings Park and Northbridge are all within easy walking distance unlike say Hay st East Perth and Adelaide Tce. The West end of Perth is where I would buy. As soon as your out the door your in the heart of it all easily!…..unlike even the more expensive Terrace rd apartments.

Btw..some other render pics than the one above do show lots of glass :okay:

NOW U/C!!! tallest u/c rite now at around 70m.

the current buildings on site are being demolished this week

.,.

Funny how this one has progressed so quick.

I really hope the tower turns out better than it looks in the rendering! It looks very squat and blocky in the advertisements.

great!
if apartment floors are 3m each, i worked out from elevation that tower is approx 62m tall to LMR.
ill amend ss.com

Density 996+Qv1+Swan Pano.

i must say with Swan pano and this the western core is starting to beef up a bit whilst the Middle sortof east area (near st martins and stuff) has gaps, i have my concern for that area, but loven the Western core!!!

You mean when are population growth comes into effect.

I noticed this advert in todays Wentworth Courier (http://www.wentworthcourier.com.au/). FYI the Wentworth is the community paper for the posh eastern suburbs of Sydney. It's a bit full on when you first browse a copy as as it is a completely colour, free, weekly magazine of around 250-350 pages mostly filled up with real estate classifieds of expensive apartments and houses.

cool

in the west, we get the 'lumiere' add. it takes up a whole page.

Hiya, this place looks really nice, so many appartments are going in the city these days.

Does anyone have the thread or photos of the appartment at the corner of Bennet and St. Georges Tce? I forgot the name.

It's an yellow/orange colour building, I think it's called St George Apartments.

Thanks

its on the corner of victoria and st georges/adelaide. It wasa former 60's office blok. ill c if i can find a pic but ill post it in the irrelavent section

More on the ball.

first render looks awesome.

It's growing on me.

Stratton complemented Telstra Exchange with it colour (if that is at all possible lol), this will complement QV1 with its bulkiness….it’s all good.

Its very butch. Prefer the 2nd render!

the construction is going hell fast. went passed and level one is done plus the corebox was ready to go on.

http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/5193/dsc020406as.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

The structure is now visible from the freeway south-bound. It's really growing fast...

Seriously?

Bring it on! The stepping down effect from Perth’s talls is severely missing on the North side.

And with cinema City Back in the game we should liven more of perths "hertiage districted".

Yes...it is visible...or the scaffolding at least. You can see it rising behind the auto-repair shops on Murray street

the cranes are visable just from teh south

I checked again on my way to work this morning and the structure is clearly visible from the north driving along the south-bound lane. Looks even larger than the last time I check...although I can't tell if it is just a lot of scaffolding...

are you sure? last time i saw it (last tues) the ground floorwasnt even completed.

Yes. I'm pretty sure I wasn't tripping that morning...
Drive onto the freeway from the Charles St on-ramp and look behind the auto-mechanics on Murray st...

Well this was taken descending off the fwy (Wellinton St exit) .Sorry I didn't go straight on.. lol http://home.iprimus.com.au/roc1/Rimg1059.jpg

it looks like quite an ugly building in the real estate section in the west australia looks like it to sharp
how tall is it

A huge whopping 62m /20levels.
:tongue3:

that all, i thought it was a bit bigger then that more like 70m

8 meters off. Meh.

We need ten resi towers twice the size of this one.

ok guys. You have to be blind (or very short-sighted) to not see the structure from the freeway (south-bound from the north) Looks like pre-fab concrete walls and lots of internal structure going up. This one is coming along pretty fast...

proper hoardings going up

i would agree with you, when people are driving pass on the freeway, however i believe that it will have a good impact on the skyline within the next few months. cheers

shit, it has really started to take off now, great news

The Sites On the End Of Hay Street Are Absalute Prime esp on southern side. The Location and Veiws from there in a 80m Appartment tower would rock, Qv1 in veiw and chances are even a 200m building on northern side of emu site would not block river veiws.

This and mabey a QV2 (sounds like the cover is off). Would liven up the place and be a catalyst for rapid change around the area. (I hope to see Qv3 one day there is no finalised design, the carpark can take 80m of tower on top of it!)

QV2??

wow bloody awsome it better go ahead:) a good idea that they wish to build it on the northern part of the site, very cleaver:applause:
