Talk:List of tallest buildings in Adelaide

City Central (Hotel Tower) - City Central

How can City Central (Hotel Tower) - City Central be both proposed, and built in 1989? Also, I suspect that's not the rhight naming convention for the articles of the City Central, Adelaide buildings. --Scott Davis ^Talk 05:50, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Proposed Buildings

Proposed buildings should be included, and if not, all proposed buildings should be removed, not only 20-22 Currie Street. --124.182.96.239 01:38, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Black Stump

The nickname from one presenter on one internet podcast does not make it a wikipedia worthy name. Please stop adding it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DoorOpensCloses (talk • contribs) 21:13, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

If you go to https://www.emporis.com/buildings/108719/grenfell-centre-adelaide-australia and scroll down to facts it clearly says "This building is sometimes referred to by locals as 'The Black Stump'." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phoenix1494 (talk • contribs) 21:56, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

Even if it were true that it is only known to him as a nickname, it should still be mentioned here because: 1. We are speaking here of a large podcast. There are usually 50,000 youtube listeners to each. Probably up to 10 times that many counting all sources (see Hello Internet wikipedia article for more information). 2. This was not a one time mention. It is constant feature of this podcast. 3. The claim in the podcast was not "let us make up a name" but "I, as a person who grew up in Adelaide, knew this building by a certain name which it is called by there." The episodes of HI could suffice as a footnote that the building is known by such a name. 4. Of course it is difficult to be sure, but I would guess that more than half the traffic to this page is by HI listeners. 97.86.110.26 (talk) 03:50, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Alright, my point originally, was really that it was unsourced, which it now isn't, so it's all good. DoorOpensCloses (talk) 20:03, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 26 May 2017

If you go to https://www.emporis.com/buildings/108719/grenfell-centre-adelaide-australia and scroll down to facts it clearly says "This building is sometimes referred to by locals as 'The Black Stump'." The page should reflect this by stating next to the Grenfell Centre aka "The Black Stump" Phoenix1494 (talk) 21:58, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. - Mlpearc (open channel) 22:17, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

Air Apartments

Air Apartments is listed as the tallest building in Adelaide from 1960 to 1966 at 55 metres. However the footnote to its height says that it is the former ETSA building and it was only raised to that height in 2003-4. The associated reference is ambiguous as to whether the penthouse modules were stacked on top of the existing building (raising its height), or installed in the top of the building (making no external change), and does not mention building height at all. --Scott Davis ^Talk 03:21, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

Walter Brooke

Re [1][2]...

@Luke848: do you have a reference that says the Architect's name is WalterBrook (with no space)? All of the text at https://walterbrooke.com.au/about/ and their other pages says "Walter Brooke" or "Walter Brooke & Associates" (both with a space). How they style their logo is not relevant - we're not putting the logo in the table, we're putting the company name. Mitch Ames (talk) 04:47, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

@Mitch Ames: Construction signage refers to the architect as "WalterBrooke", you can look it up on Google. Additionally the lead project manager of the Freemason Hall Tower project referred to the architect as "WalterBrooke". Luke848 (talk) 05:06, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

I searched for "WalterBrooke" and - not surprisingly - could not find anything without the space (excluding their stylised logo). I've provided you with a reliable source that says there's a space in the company name, and here's a couple more: https://www.architectureanddesign.com.au/news/freemasons-tower-to-be-adelaide-s-tallest-building https://freemasonry.network/more_news/australia-freemasons-tower-proposal-aims-for-adelaides-tallest-public-building-title/

I suggest that the onus is on you to provide a reliable source that says the company name (not just the stylised logo) does not have a space in it. Mitch Ames (talk) 13:28, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

83 Pirie st adelaide

Tower at 83 Pirie street for some reason has not been included on this list. 101.174.159.232 (talk) 12:21, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Text dark in dark mode

The text of the first entry for Frome Tower is dark in dark mode, so invisible. Other rows are fine. Anyone know why? Alec Gargett (talk) 04:57, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

23-29 Market St

Tower at 23-29 Market St has not been included on this list. Raident g0 (talk) 00:07, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

that's because it is not tall enough to be in the top 50 list. Melcous (talk) 14:08, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
