Tall building approved next to Aurora
Be careful if you intend to buy or rent in Aurora apartments in Brisbane. A huge building is proposed for next door.
See the pre-sales website. Hotel, offices and 109 apartments.
I hear that Aurora has many other problems. For example, count the number of lifts and the number of apartments. What is the average waiting time? And how many people are in each apartment? What is the condition of the common facilities -- are they getting too much use because of the number of people per apartment? What about the cold storage room for groceries and the residents workshop? Does the iris scan security work? Who is the resident manager, and what is the relationship between the resident manager and the developer?
Update - November 2007
APH has listed what it is calling Trilogy Tower for sale this week. It has not yet started construction, but it is selling the land and development rights. It is said that the contract to build the building has been signed. Trilogy Tower is a large tower next door to Aurora.
