Great pic by defec.
I am ... very suprised at the height lol. It looks way taller than i thought it would.
Im impresser with the outcome of the building (not completely finished)
It gets my approval.

 

[Guest]

It sure has made a difference to the way Brizzy looks.

 

[RADULA]

See malt, spires aren't all that bad!

great pic!

 

[Malt]

^ Theyre not bad, no.

Only when theyre used to cheat lol.

To me, Riparian is a 200m building first, 250m second.

 

[JayT]

Wow - what a stick!!

You can see it from far and wide now.

[Grantus]

hmmm, shurely the crains have got to be coming down soon

 

[marty_k]

It looks like they've still got a bit to do right up the top there in the plant area, so it'll still be a little while before the cranes come down.

 

[JayT]

Cranes are comming down on the 16th of may.

can't wait untill they light this building up at night ( I hope they do, more then needed ) as for malts picture, What building is under construction that you can see on far right, where the crane is?

 

[CULWULLA]

^ thats 120m/39st CASINO TOWERS!

 

[nikko]

Very nice

i can't wait until this can be named finished (btw, how do you classify finished?)

For it's width, the spire is very noticable and really impacts the building. In the car today, I keep my eye on the city as riparian towered above

oh and cul, a bit off topic but what's the Dalby mast used for?

 

[CULWULLA]

A building is finished when crane is gone and external finishes are complete.basically whne nothing else looking from outside is to be done.interior stuff can go one for months.lol
The Dalby mast is radio 4DDD. I think?

Fair enough still a while to go then. There seems to still be some happenings up in the plant.

I'm on the lower crane,the higher 750 lifted the spire.All workers employed on Riparian had to sign a confidentiality agreement,regarding certain aspects of the buildings construction,i am one of those. :jk: I'm usually there ten..sometimes more hours a day i prefer not to bring work home,i use these forums as a relaxation tool,although sometimes i get abit caught up in the to and fro. :cheers:

 

[Wezza]

Wow it really made a difference to Riparian!! Looks fantastic IMO. Very tall, imagine how Vision is going to look!!

 

[zulu69]

Looks great and as everyone say really does change the skyline for the better. I only wish that the spire would have been integrated better than the simple stick on top look.
Great anyway, bring on Vision!
