^im speaking to the planner that is dealing with its application today so ill ask him height. i think its approx 110m-120m. not sure where this is? im interested in its RL, beacuse this is how it will show on skyline.

CULWULLA · June 30th, 2005, 07:13 AM

got some info from NS planner.
height of 138 Walker st- 117m (RL178m) which is slightly higher then beaumonde.
it wont be getting approval due to being in a 5storey height zone,lol
also the 29storey Hotel at 16 Mount st will be 100m tall and looks like getting approved.

It's amazing how many dwellings are down in that valley. Sydney is just full of these hidden surprises.

I was looking at the web site of Smart Design Studio and came across these pictures of 'Walker Street Apartmments'; does anyone know anything about the building? I thought it may have been the DA zulu69 posted, but it's a different architect and, I think, further up Walker Street. I really dig it.

CULWULLA · July 13th, 2005, 12:46 AM

yeah, looks good. i wonder if it is still "active" or a past proposal? looks about 90m.

Fabian · July 13th, 2005, 05:03 AM

It's recent - part of Beau Monde appears in the skyline render

It's different to Zulu's drawings but looks just as good. Good setbacks on the upper floors & I love overhang.

I found out today at the North Sydney Council Offices that it is separate to Zulu's tower.

The tower that zulu posted was for 136-140 Walker St, whilst papervaginas is for the site next door, 144-150 Walker Street.

I've seen models of both towers plus for a couple of others (including the 30 storey hotel proposal for Mount St) which I'll post later

Fabian · July 20th, 2005, 11:55 PM

The model photos as promised

16-40 Mount St - This tower combined with 100 Pacific Highway will ensure the formation of a wall of skyscrapers along the Pacific Highway

136-140 Walker St (Zulu's tower)

144-150 Walker St (papervaginas tower)

You'lll notice some building envelopes here as well suggesting that there is even more development on the cards for this part of North Sydney

CULWULLA · July 21st, 2005, 12:20 AM

Aussie Steve · July 21st, 2005, 12:59 AM

WOW Great to see more action in NS. Can't wait to see it all in a few weeks time.

James Saito · July 21st, 2005, 01:44 AM

16-40 Mount St look awesome! Is it an office tower?

CULWULLA · July 21st, 2005, 01:50 AM

^ its a hotel.

SinCity · July 21st, 2005, 07:44 AM

Fuck me dead

At least 3 new towers for North Sydney. Thats great. Its been ages since we've seen a number of highrise proposals at the same time.

gazmo · September 3rd, 2005, 12:28 PM

Wow - I'm working at 12 Mount St tomorrow (was there today too), I'll take a pic of the site.

The lower part of this building is current car park and the taller part will replace what's currently a very scruffy (or even vacant) Telephone exchange.

Part of which was built in 1930... Where will the Telephone Exchange be relocated? The site is also quite tall for what is a very low area of NS... It's behind the Great Wall of Miller St.

BTW I go past this site every day on my way to Starbucks after telling a dimwit member of staff how to attach a file in Outlook Web Access.... For the 50th TIME! Needed to vent...

gazmo · September 4th, 2005, 03:01 AM

There's better coffee than Starbuck's up the road you know.

gazmo · September 4th, 2005, 10:39 AM
