great, thats the one i put on ss.com! theres new ones around, but alot smaller.
cheers

Not bad, not bad, these guys will sit pretty close to Pivotal point, so lots of action for Southport, gosh, there's no area of the coast which isn't 'getting some' at the moment;)

Here's a pretty good rendering from RE.com

Smack bang in the centre of Southport.
Is pivotal going just to the north of this project?

Pivitol is going where Meteora house is - right where the old mall used to be, opposite Australia Fair. Its the 5 or 6 story building in the above shot.

Thanks. I didn't realise it was going there.

I wonder if people on this forum prefer what was the Southport Mall with or without traffic?

I noticed in the paper they released the Big tower in the weekend so sales must be brisk.

jt

sales are very good!
in latest bulliten indicates the taller east tower is now selling well!
The twin tower complex has excellent units. They include high-class fixtures,granite benchtops,bosch appliances with gas cooktops,split air cond,Grohe tapware,Villeroy sanitry ware.

heres a pic of latest night render! very cool.
ill have to do a Southport skyline soon!

your kidding? thats unbelievable progress! lev20 in core! sheesh

The other one's not far behind either. I could have gotten heaps of better pics from the other side, you can practically walk onto the site, but there were so many construction dudes around, and I hate looking like some kind of nerdy trainspotter.

^ lol, just say your from WorkCover and they will scatter like cockroaches.hehe

When they scatter, they don't do any WORK!

From the north (theres an empty block of land on Marshall Lane that you can see in the foreground, which may soon be a development site of its own judging by the signage):

wow, nice shots! these dont look much atm but the slopped tops should ensure a good outcome.
like the last one. i can see Pivotal Point in backgrd

Where is it Cul, where where? ;) lol

I hope they dont paint them gr**n, I know ive said it before but shit in the render the towers are gr**n. By the looks of it the glass isn't gr**n (that is allowed), so the only way the towers will look like in the renders they will have to paint the concrete, gr**n is the forbidden colour.

Where did you get that photo from? Looks like Mt. Tamborine, except I would think that would be more like 30-35Km away

I think these have a great location, makes them look much taller than they are

photo taken by my mobile phone--- near pacific pines around 15 kms from southport .

This photo was taken on Friday evening from the Sea World carpark..

This looks great. The roof looks fantastic. Doesn't look like they're going to be cost cutting *cough*Chevron*cough*. Don't you hate it when you have a sore throat like that.

i went to southport 3 days ago, and took at photo of a building i dont know

http://img127.echo.cx/img127/8761/p10300085ll.jpg

Nice photo Sunni. That's Nexus, I'll chuck it into the Nexus thread for you

thank you :D

i was in the bus, so i couldnt take a better shot :)

http://img241.echo.cx/img241/5273/p10300092mb.jpg

thanks sunni. not far from completion!
cheers

http://www.cmrdesign.net/towers/nexus-050705.jpg

excellent. good shot. not far to go now.hopefully the exposed concrete surfaces will be painted the promised blue soon.

I seriously cant wait for the blue to go on, it will probs stop the cars from lookin on the road due to its amazing look :hahaha:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v437/citiboy/nexes.jpg

Hmm doesnt look very blue does it?

they would be the slowest builders to paint ------no where near finished

wow, love there scoops!
thanks citiboy!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v175/kwigibo/nexusjk.jpg

They better not save money and not paint it blue like in the render, it would be a shame as its such a nicely designed tower.

EDIT: Oh yes also thanks kwigibo for taking the pictures :)

STILL not externally complete! Have they given up on this one or something? Why don't they just paint it and get it over with. Oh well at least its a pretty photo - the sun and clouds co-operated. :D

http://www.cmrdesign.net/towers/nexus-250905.jpg

great. Pivotals points gold looks superb

Great shot and nice colours, yeah doesn't Pivotal shine.

^ Indeedy. Here's one I took back on August the 14th. Nexus looked all finished except for plastic wrapping over the balc railings.

http://www.ct4host.lunarpages.com/gc/IMG_5958.jpg

Wow!

Now imagine how Eureka will look - highest point in Melbourne shining like a golden beacon.

Yeah I know, that thing's just unbelievable isn't it :?

Great shot defec8R, 'Gold' Coast indeed!

painting is just about done. even painted church same colour

Well they don't look anything like the renders but nevertheless they look really classy. I was a bit worried this was going to be another case of "leave it looking like crap so the residents can save a few bucks a year" penny pinching. Good to see that's not the case - well done GPD, now get cracking on our Nautica!

They'd make good Generic council flats wouldn't they, imagine a few hundred of those sticking up all around Brisbane - probably best not to go down that path :runaway:

Was looking through the PRD website a few mins ago and this catched my eye:

FINAL TOUCHES ADDED TO SOUTHPORT'S LANDMARK TOWERS
The Gold Coast Bulletin, Friday 2nd December 2005
Long-time Gold Coast developer Noel Gordon's landmark Nexus project at Southport is set to deliver, with the first residents scheduled to move in by Christmas.

Builders Leightons Contractors this week splashed on a final coat of paint to complete the twin-tower project which, with Eddie Kornhauser's Pivotal Point, is credited with playing a pioneering role in the transformation of the Southport business district.

The $103 million project, which includes a cafe-restaurant and commercial precinct, has been developed on the former Guardian Angels site in Scarborough Street.

More than $80 in sales have been achieved and settlement is due early this month.

Construction of the 21-level North Tower and 27-level East Tower has taken 21 months and is due to be completed on time.

Nexus marketing agent Tim Holmes of PRDnationwide Gold Coast Corporate Office, is about to release for sale the last 20 Nexus apartments, including two full-floor penthouses.

All apartments are designed for owner occupiers and have large 'liveable' balconies that extend the living areas.

"The most enthusiastic group to embrace the project has been Coast and Brisbane residents, traditionally the most astute buyers of Gold Coast apartments," said Mr Holmes.

"I expect the final release of Nexus apartments to continue this trend and for the apartments to be snapped up by owner-occupiers."

Nexus Towers facilities include a 20-sea private theatrette, pool, sauna, barbecue area, gymnasium, landscaped surrounds and a grassed piazza fronting Scarborough Street.

--------------

Was this to make the building look more like the blue in the render or just another coat, has anyone seen the buildings lately?

Some pics to finish off the thread -

wow, they turned out ok. they even painted the 22m church tower of Gaurdian Angels.
The 1957 church was once Southports tallest building!
has it anything to do with Nexus? looks like its part of it?
