Design Concept

So this is what the finished project is heading towards.
My guess is that it will change a little along the way.

Constructing a drain

26 March 2013
One of the early photos taken.
Esplanade area has been cleared, a couple of drying ponds created, and work begun on the drains(?) near the crane.
The yellow booms in the water are to prevent sediment getting into the river.
William St is closed and Riverside drive has had a slight diversion.

Elizabeth Quay Construction

Hi All

Thought I would give everyone an advantage of my eye in the sky view of the construction of Elizabth Quay.
I have been working on the 40th floor of the BHP Building in Perth, and have been fascinated by the progress and works being done.
Not sure how they project plan on something like this, I guess they start with a final design, and work backwards to get all of the steps along the way. Things that are built that look permanant turn out to be only temporary, and some things are just downright puzzling.
