dilaz-wow, you guys getting a rialto too? lol didnt know about that one.
As for raine square, yeah i knew it looked like that. what a beauty, but you said to wait until you get official height. 94m or 110m? being 25 office floors i think its closer to 110m.

September 2nd, 2006, 08:52 AM
ah yeah sorry to confuse you lol. Ill call architects when i get some time during the week.

CULWULLA
September 2nd, 2006, 09:07 AM
no worries. well for arguements sake, i count 24 office floors which are probably 4 each, thus 96m, then the fin section which is equal to 2 floors, thus 8m + 96m=104m.
maybe the 94m is for roof top? i reckon 110m will be height.
cheers

When i viewed plans last week it had 110mRL measured to blade and at the base it had 16mRL = 94m. When the original plans where mooted it was 112m however when i rang the council they said 96m above ground. When the new design canme through it was acknowledged that 2m has been taken off. It makes sense although i hope its 110m.

CULWULLA
September 2nd, 2006, 09:34 AM
oh ok. so if top of fin=96m then av office lev = 3.7m which is stil reasonable these days.thus 24x3.7m= 88m/roof.96m/fins
