wtf? dude if the roof design is not safe for children they damn well have a right to complain. If a kid falls and the conclusion was had they designed it right the child would not of fallen, i think the company would get done.

Who the fuck lets thier children play on a 16 story roof with no railings to stop them from falling over to the side?

Edit: (sorry I aint dissing you but just a question which is self explanitory!)

A roof garden is never going to be 100% safe unless you remove the feature or box it in completely with wire mesh. How about the parents discipline their children to act sensibly near the wall or maintain parental supervision heaven forbid? Its not as if there was no safety barrier in the design! I feel that roof gardens are vital and need to be encouraged rather than become another mythically dangerous piece of modern living.

Terrible aint it. Roof gardens are fantastic. Can't they have some form of railings that fairly young children can't get over but that allow the garden users to still be able to see easily and aren't too restrictive?

You and I had the same idea Mikey

eXSBass · December 25th, 2005, 12:42 AM

Fantastic! When's it due to finish with people moving in? I'm making a wild guess and saying May next year?

1980 · December 25th, 2005, 02:43 AM

What it would be like to live here?
Does anyone know anything about the area in general, like crime, pollution and whatnot?

eXSBass · December 25th, 2005, 02:51 AM

Its near the wharf. They've got valet parking. I doubt this area will be Jonny Allans secret lair for smuggling god knows what

Click on 'My hobby' on the left. You can then click on the button to the lower left of the render to get a bigger, better version... but it still doesnt look as good as it did in paint though...

Is everything in the right place?
