Commerical Lab company in Civic (Sydney Building - Northbourne Side)

At the risk of monopolizing 30 seconds of someone’s time for my own selfish gains: a few weeks back I was stumbling, er walking home through Civic when I walked past one of the shopfronts on the Northbourne side of the Sydney building. It appeared to be some kind of commercial lab (involving “chemistry” somewhere in the description).

I’m having a discussion with a coworker and I can’t find any info on the business. Tried the phone book (online and hardcopy) as well as a few carefully crafted Google searches… returned nada.

Does someone know the name and/or the primary function of this business?

it is indeed an ad agency and to avoid confusion for late night revelers looking for a fix i understand they are about to change their name.

Sounds a bit like that business The Distillery a few years back in Braddon which was supposedly involved in espionage.

heh heh, you silly bugger. I dare say you must have had quite a few to be so confused weeks later that you came here to sort your head out. =)

Doh, OK… I guess I’d had more to drink than I originally thought. Makes more sense to have an Ad Agency in the middle of Civic rather than a commercial lab.

Ad agency, eh? I knew it had something to do with drugs.

I daresay it was Adlab, which is actually an advertising agency run by a Miekle with business connections with CityNews and various bars in the surrounding area. Nice fitout, enormous space for the number of staff. I cannot guarantee that all assertions in the first sentence are true.

Clandestine meth lab, cunningly hidden in full view?
