However, I cannot understand why it seems OK to waste all the resources that have gone into producing that building just because people don't like the look of it or it doesn't fit with someone's grand vision. We don't have the riches of the Roman Empire to squander here. To me, it is absolutely ludicrous that the government would allow wastage on such a grand scale. I won't be voting for such a short-sighted government.

Think Pompidou Centre, Paris. It's a classic structure and is far more aesthetically pleasing than the so-called Executive Building opposite. The real reasons for demolition and sale have everything to do with economics, not aesthetics.

What exactly is the life expectancy of any building given - 50 years from now the current 10 Murray may be classed as heritage.

Federation Square, is uncomfortable, hot and hard to access for people with wheeled appliances like wheelchairs and prams.

We have Salamanca Square as a gathering place, with its romance and culture which comes from not being over stylised and contrived.

no matter what you do the waterfront will always be seperated from the CBD by the highway, address that and you may get some 'flow' of people between the area.

Quite some years ago I was responsible for the work in nominating this building for consideration to the heritage register. I am sure the integrity of building could be maintained in a more considered and environmentally aware redevelopment of the square, rather than complete demolition. Hobart has a shameful past in demolition of significant work. Think again

I make this statement through my works over the years in the (diamond industry) i.e sawing, drilling, & grinding concrete in Tasmania And north island. I can verify that the structure of building is far superior to the way we build them now and would be a complete waste of public funds for the current proposal ever gets the go ahead because our treasurer said in the news tonight (he will make it happen) Regards DAVID

I for one, do NOT wish to have a redevelopment we do not need or want and do not at all agree that the proposal will benefit all. A sheer waste of time and resources. Probably due to a few individuals with no idea or regard for anything other than fluffing up their own feathers. Very sad state we live in if it goes ahead.
