Wow, Raphel....very interesting footage!
I guess if there is anything good to come from all this carnage at all.....all the demolition and then re-building work should provide lots of employment and help to stimulate the local economy?!?
Cheers Bazman , in theory, yes there should be some stimulation of the economy although there's currently a shortage of manpower to help with the demolition work . One problem is there's been an exodus of skilled workers from the city but there has been a lot of overseas assistance arrive to give us a hand , most welcomed.
7 months on now from the big rattle, the 're-build' for the CBD is'nt due to start until the 3rd quarter of '012, or thereabouts.
Here's some recent footage from last week that's quite interesting ...
