Time for miensie to get an SLR!

monarols · July 15th, 2009, 02:51 AM

Yes, walked through it this morning. Quite nice. Also nice to see is that the council has finally cleaned up the pavement on the piazza and the southern side of James St down to William St of the thousands of those unsightly black chewing gum blobs. Makes the old section of pavement look half decent now.

Lets just hope the Piazza will remain free of becoming a local watering hole, leaving bottles and casks littered everywhere.

chewing gum in public should be illegal.

let's adopt a singaporean style rule.

every morning i see cleaners at fed square with tha steam gun cleaner hosing gum off tha bluestone...

I have the boy's Nikon (which is now mine) but I can't lug that around with me to work as it's too heavy and bulky. The Sony I use for all photos I post on here is really slim and small but unfortunately takes really crap shots lawl

I agree with that. The paving looks really good. Don't know how long it'll stay that pristine though. The William St pavement upgrade has nothing on this.

I can't wait for those trees to start growing though, they look a mite scraggly and scrawny at the mo'.

I half agree with you, but it's the disposing of it on the pedestrian pavement or road SHOULD be illegal, but not the chewing of. There are bins provided. people should use them.

It has been an irritation of mine for ages (black blobs on pavements all over Perth), as I walk down that road every morning, and to the best of my knowledge, that section of walkway hasn't been touched for at least a year.

Yes, it's the little things that irritate me, lol

crave · July 15th, 2009, 04:01 AM

cigarette smokers who throw butts on tha street.

So, this is the Saigon Pastry House, Stay Healthy, Perth City Tackle & Camping, Down to Earth Bookshop and Joynt Venture building (using Google Maps).

samboy · July 15th, 2009, 10:27 AM

must be as saigon is already closed (not sure about the rest). Does anyone know what's earmarked for this site?

ryan79 · July 16th, 2009, 01:43 AM

Wonder what they are doing with it all?

The building is all and the steps make noises haha, joynt venture haha the first time i went in there people stared at me, I hope the building gets knocked down though

-edit-

I just looked at the building on google earth, they wont pull that down its old, maybe its next door, west of it?
Arcade 800?

desperaterobots · July 16th, 2009, 02:17 AM

I work opposite Saigon Pastry House (well, used to, it vacated a month or so ago and is opening up on Barrack St). All those retail spaces are run down and in need of an update, but I liked that I could pop over on my break and pick up a reasonably priced bite to eat.

Arcade 800 could be totally awesome if they built up a few floors and opened up the current arcade into more of a laneway to join up to the King St laneways.

crave · July 16th, 2009, 02:28 AM

well it's heritage listed... so they must knocking off tha back or something...

Someone know what this is about?

Scraperfan · July 16th, 2009, 11:27 AM

a shower facility for bike users?

jackso · July 16th, 2009, 03:40 PM

Nah it will be a permit for something RE food or bathrooms. Its a $0 permit like extended trading permits. It's probably just a permit to serve food or alcohol in an area that isnt specifically designated for it.

BartBart · July 16th, 2009, 04:20 PM

Food and wine event on at the end of the month?

Knowing Perth bureaucracy I say it's probably to do with pushing the coffee cart 3inches to the left.

Or possibly to blow your nose into a non regulation size tissue.
