^^ He could be talking about many things in that post, even though im considering it a double entendre, cause it has many meanings in one, the first thing that came to my mind was very sexual.

Anyway, looks like they've changed the design for this one, the tallest building didn't look so glassy in the original renders.
Yeah I had a feeling it was something sexual:lol:

It's good it has a restaurant on the ground floor, it will encourage more people to come into that area since it is quite a quiet area of the northern CBD.

Wallmurra Towers is also rising at a good pace. Once again my timing has fallen when the sun is directly facing into the camera!

Either it was early knock off time today or Monday was their day off the site had no one on it. They do seem to be getting ready for the next level though.

Looks like it is topped out and the crane is now on an angle. It adds some nice low level density to the area with a good looking development.

Yeah couldn't see it yesterday either. The crane count is getting really low, least we have a few approvals waiting but it might be a while before they start. I think our next major site will be Central Park and there is the RSL as well.

And the crane is gone again!

Here are a lot of photos. The paint is ok, at least it isn't white but I'll give my verdict when I come back and see it complete.

Yes it's a great little project. I've noticed some changes with the original render too.

Glass at the back of the walkway is different, I couldn't see that garden and the pond had a raised wall around it. Also there is another level on the right building. Top unit on the left building now has less windows, the balcony doesn't go right around and the purple cement pillar next to the walkway goes all the way up. In the render it seemed to stop after the last balcony. Also there is now a pillar on the right building supporting the new level I guess.

All finished, a little messy looking but overall another great little development.
