It's nice to see St. David's coming down but that Media Wales building is a pig isn't it? It's really going to stand out now, at least it was hidden before.
I'm home in under 2 weeks so I'll pop into town for a wander
aah tower cranes - surely a mark of the level of construction activity. I believe that the count of city centre cranes in about a week will be a big fat zero!!
The Zenith crane (Herbert St) is coming down very soon I believe. Slightly outside immediate city centre we've got 1 (or is it 2?) at students uni development park place, 2 at student accom. CRI west wing.
However within the next couple of months1 at premier inn customhouse st
1 or 2 at Howard Gardens student accom.
1 (maybe) for that easyhotel fitzalan place
1 or 2 at the Dumballs road apartment blocks
Potentially there should be plenty more within 6 - 12 months - but who knows 2 for ledger building (central quay)
2 for car park (central quay)
2+ for callaghan sq. john st
2 student accom. park place - bradley court
4 or 5 for the transport exchange if it ever actually starts!!
So 5 or 6 definites with a further 14ish possibles!! therefore from none in a week or so to
maybe 20 a yr from now - we'll see
ps. let's not forget - hopefully a big F off!! one at customhouse st
oh and another one is of course cap qtr plot 5 - I noticed that a number of works cabins have appeared next to feeder so this one (residential tower - about 80m) could be all systems go soon.
