What to expect when Canberra Centre takes over Civic

there are about 6 or 7 just in the city area..

Canberra City on the GROW

I hope that is the case folks, anyone know positvely one way or another?

Bulldog, I heard the same thing about the Noise Law.

With Gypsy Bar Mk1, the scuttle butt was that management decided not to fight, but with complaints coming from a Cafe/Restaurant maybe they mismanaged the whole problem…

Forget Civic… has ANYONE had to try and find a park at the Canberra Hospital? Thank God the brown bombers don’t hit there, they could fix any Govt’s deficit problem in a week.

interesting sounding law given the fate of Gypsy bar mk1 going under due to the whims of some twats in a coffee shop that didnt like the subterranean rumble of live music while suping their chino at 11 at night in East Row for fks sake! honestly how was that complaint upheld? I wouldnt sit in east row having a cuppa at night unless I was packing heat – its round the cnr from mooseheads !

Che – was speaking to a couple of mates who run/manage pubs last night and they were saying that in December a law was passed that the business that was operating first has the right to continue with their current practices – this was specifically turned to the matter of live music. if this is true (any players heard of this before?) then live music should have nothing to fear from new establishments.

more appartments will mean more noise complaints about businesses that have been around for a long time but will anyone take any notice?

If there are 3-4 stories worth of car parks, there may actually be more car parks there that before anyway.

I hate to say it but I am looking forward to it getting done. Morbid curiosity I guess.

All the carparks that used to be where the new building is going were paid parking anyway Kimba, so I don’t see a problem there.

There will be plenty of carparks within the new complex….but all paid.

The cinema’s will be a big plus for the city. I’d say Greater Union will fold in time.

Apart from the new shops there will be offices (including the tax office) and, yes, more apartments

When they started construction in that area I seem to remember there being a ruddy big hole in the ground. Perhaps there will be underground parking?

There are at least three levels of carparks under the new development. Do you not remember the huge excavations before they started building?

Bags, as for the Electric Shadows issue, check out these links:

Haven’t you heard the new Urban Services marketing slogan for Civic:

“This used to be Canberra… now it could be bloody anywhere!”

As long as Gus and Landspeed remain, I dont care.

What’s this about Electric Shadows!?

I know what to expect… no parking space…

umm…you mean QLD investment corp?
