Perth’s growing skyline
May 18
Noticed there are so many god damn cranes in the city but don’t know what it’s all about? Well you lazy bum, I just did a whole lot of homework for you. Here’s what’s coming up (building and shopping wise) in the Perth CBD.
one40william is that mess of steel, concrete and noise right above the Perth Underground train station. When it’s finished it’s going to look like a giant Jenga tower. While the artist impression pictures are pretty funky, the shops are not the thing to get excited about. According to floor plans that long glass window directly above the train station entrance will be a ‘tavern’. The perfect vantage point to get trashed and laugh at people catching the train (or maybe have a perve?). Expected completion April 2010 (booo too far away!).
enex100 is that mysterious set of doors in the Hay Street mall that haven’t opened yet (the ones with Mimco next to them). When they do it’s going to be a whole lot of disappointment: Friendlies Chemist, something called ‘Health Kick’ and another Woolwooths. Zzzzzzz. Those doors will open next month.
Raine Square is the other hunk of metal across the road from one40william. Not too many details on the net about this building but it will be the new home of Bankwest (banks employ a lot of gay people), and will have three levels of retail (one40william only has two). Apparently there will be new underground tunnel built so you can walk directly from the tower to the train station. One artist impression I found featured a Prada store along Murray street. November this year.
By 2012 the old Bankwest tower Central Park will no longer be Perth’s tallest - 20 years later we are finally growing out of the 1990s! The BHP Tower will become the tallest skyscraper in Perth once completed. It’s under construction right now in Perth’s famous giant hole in the ground.
