Watkins jones are advertising for an assistant quantity surveyor for the Cardiff office on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WatkinJonesGroup/
They say that the position is to help with the two exciting developments that will be changing the Cardiff skyline.
So to me that sounds like good news.
Also some pics of the tower crane

So do we think this tower is actually going to happen? 135 meters is gargantuan for ANY city in the South West of the UK.

Sounds rather ominous :(


On the other hand it could be good news!! ever the optimist that's me - I even fancy Cardiff City to sneak into the playoffs!! ;)

Anyway I really hope this project doesn't disappear - it would be so good for our improving skyline and Cardiffs very own 'super skinny skyscraper'! - all the trend in New York nowadays


That's some serious herb you're smoking there pablo

Perhaps you need to pass some of that stuff around, we could do with more optimism in Wales.

Looks like things could come to life again on this one. Discussions were positive. Will post more if/when we get the definitive go ahead. At the moment, it's full-steam ahead on Bridge St.

Good news! This one sounds like a real roller coaster of a project. I'll only be satisfied when there's a crane standing there!

Usually, I'm only satisfied once I'm standing on top of the full-height frame!

I really hope this gets the go ahead. With this and Bridge street, it could pave the way for more tall developments in the city. If we are serious about Cardiff becoming an international and vibrant city, this is it
