There's now a video on the site:

And a screen grab:



That's one thin mofo.

Yup, a real Callista Flockhart! Eastend apartments will be visible in that shot too; poking up over the aussie post building.

Edit: Actually that pic looks as if it's been stretched. Still will be skinny though.

Some great shots of the city in that video, albeit a little outdated. Thanks Archi.

Depends where you are looking at it from!
It will be very noticable from Carlton.
Nice video.

You will also see it from St Kilda Rd (south of The Domain Interchange) and from St Kilda Junction.

hi guys, i got sent this link by a friend of mine.
it seems like some of you guys have quite the knowledge of building construction or at least have access to the information you need, which is great!

I signed up to this forum because I have bought one of the apartments on the 19th floor, facing Latrobe St. I'm 24 and live up in QLD. No I'm not some rich kid.

I'll see if i can scan some more info from the prospectus when i get a chance and post it up.

Welcome tofu, you have done well (north facing apartment) and just above the Katsalidis building.
By the way, there's nothing wrong with being rich, we're not prejudiced here.
