or hes just a new reader goign back through the boards and posting his opinion on some of our older discussions.

generally not overly good opinions but opinions are the point of message boards?

[cjb287]

I agree but his posts are useless and offer very little if any insight into the discussions that have taken place

[Grollo]

Barton Group have just had an amendment to the permit approved. Height will stay the same but there will be apartments included in part of the top three service levels.

This is a good sign that the proposal is not dead.

^Still a pulse then ??

[Qantas743]

They haven't switched off the life support yet!

[melburn21]

i dunno. im just feel like this one will never happen. wasnt it basically sold out 2 years ago?
if it hasnt gotten up in years, when other projects are sprouting up around it like wildflowers, i doubt its ever going to happen... not in its current form anyway.

[MelbourneOnTheRise]

if its the same barton that got their box hill tower knocked back, then this will never happen.

[manila_playa87]

Oh well maybe something like a luxury 50-60 condominium/hotel tower will go up instead oh maybe i'm just dreamin lol. If only i had the keys to Melbourne...

Thankfully we are nearing the end of the hard work and are preparing to move forward. We will keep you informed of the progress.

In the mean time, please have a happy Xmas 2015, we will be in touch.
Faithfully,

The Barton Team

Should I update the prediction and add a few years!!

Funny. J.W. Howard said the same thing about GST when he was in opposition.

Ask Tony Abbott that.

You obviously don't watch the news or notice the quotation marks.

I watch/read the news.

You look at pictures and bold quotations in the Herald Sun.

[manila_playa87]

Well if it's "dead and buried" lets not dig it up then...

[tower_dan]

exactly, "why did you dig up the bones of the past???? why did you disturb the ghosts of history!"

Quote: Jebadiah Springfield hahaha

[cage of man]

Why arent there people in the know telling us whats happening with this project?

[tower_dan]

According to the contracts I believe the work has to be completed by 2013. I don't believe this is possible anyway. Does anyone have anymore news?

Thanks

I don't think its possible either. I bought one too, and I'm looking to get my lawyer to see any possibility of compensation. Is this worth waiting, or should I opt out getting barton tower apartment?
