#Approved: AM30 - 20st/96m/office

KJBrissy · September 30th, 2011, 02:02 AM

As detailed in today's Prime Site. Ground floor supermarket, 1 basement for carparking and one of the biggest end of trip facilities on the 1st floor.

The tower looks like a clear/white box. Nothing massive, however it looks interesting.

30 albert st, cnr margaret st

developers are devine & marquette

KJBrissy · September 30th, 2011, 02:12 AM

Sorry, I missed one of the more important bits. It is opposite AM60 and will be proposed instead of their resi-proposal by the looks.

SoulvisionQ1 · September 30th, 2011, 02:14 AM

Camelot proposal which it replaces. Interesting that they've opted for an office tower instead.

KJBrissy · September 30th, 2011, 02:22 AM

I think there is a much better market for Office at the moment.

Which is a good thing. Brisbane needs a good office upswing, 111 isn't enough

nathandavid88 · September 30th, 2011, 02:31 AM

Although 111 Eagle is only at 40% committed...

By the way, can anyone grab a photo of the Prime Site story?

SoulvisionQ1 · September 30th, 2011, 02:44 AM

It's alright. Looks like something that would be proposed for the Valley.

From Courier Mail.

nathandavid88 · September 30th, 2011, 03:12 AM

I don't mind it being a bit small, it fits in with AM60 and 55 Albert, neither of which are overly big. The addition of a supermarket down there seems a little weird. Hopefully it will bring a bit of life to that end of the street.

As long as it looks ok at ground level - if AM60 is anything to go by it shouldn't be half bad - and it's sympathetic to Watson Bros Building and Beatrice Lane (both heritage listed) then I'm all for it.

Agreed. The Valley or Coronation Drive would be better suited to someting like this.

It will be a nice filler.

SoulvisionQ1 · September 30th, 2011, 03:45 AM

As long as it doesn't have a pie face, i'll be happy

wallie55 · September 30th, 2011, 04:22 AM

agreed.

Chuckeh · September 30th, 2011, 04:29 AM

the thing I'm most pleased about is what it will be replacing.

Hey I live there! It's a lot nicer on the inside (providing you've done your apartment up since the 80s). But you're right about the outside...

brizguy · September 30th, 2011, 04:36 AM

Depending on the glass this could turn out looking really good.

neilo63 · September 30th, 2011, 04:55 AM

BOQ take the whole building - super quick build, configure the way BOQ wants it. BAM

nathandavid88 · September 30th, 2011, 05:06 AM

The DA will be lodged next week according to the article, so we'll have some more renders and plans to look at then. I really want to see how they plan to address Beatrice Lane. I recall that in the previous Camelot proposal for the site, Council told Devine to look at including laneway activation in their information request, as the neighbouring Carrington Tower proposal incorporates a pedestrian precinct at the rear and half of a cross block link.

joel1986 · September 30th, 2011, 04:43 AM

looks quite good, though it seems as though there is no activation to Margaret St. Kinda turns its back on it. Not a fan of blank walls. Though i cant really tell what is there...

Pieface have secured 1 of the 3 ground floor tenancies.
