Alexandra Fountain

Alexandra Fountain is a fountain in the Australian city of Bendigo, Victoria. It is regarded as one of the city's most prominent landmarks and monuments. The fountain is located in Bendigo's Charing Cross area at the intersection of View Street and Pall Mall. Charing Cross effectively stands at the centre of the city and is one of Bendigo's busiest and most prominent intersections. The fountain stands opposite the main entrance of Rosalind Park. Alexandra Fountain was funded from the proceeds of the Bendigo Juvenile Industrial Exhibition (1879), a £500 gift from George Lansell and a further £700 from the Sandhurst City Council (now the City of Greater Bendigo). The fountain was designed by William Vahland (1828–1915), a local architect responsible for some of the city's most prominent buildings. The fountain was named in honour of Alexandra, Princess of Wales. Its grand opening on 5 July 1881 was attended by her sons Prince Albert and Prince George. Other than the Exhibition Fountain, built in 1880 and located in the Melbourne's Carlton Gardens, the Alexandra Fountain is the largest and most ornate municipal fountain in Victoria. The fountain stands 28 feet (8.5 m) high and sits in a 50 feet (15 m) diameter circular pool which itself is 2 feet (0.61 m) deep. It is made from 20 tonnes (22 tons) of Harcourt granite, cast iron and painted stone. Decoratively the fountain includes lion head spouts, four allegorical female figures, spouted bronzed mer-horses and dolphins, medallions of seashells, dolphins and tridents also decorate the fountain. The pool is bordered by a decorative cast-iron fence and lit with four cast-iron lamps. Historically the fountain is a monument to the success of the goldfields and the Bendigo region. Aesthetically the fountain is fairly typical of late Victorian monumental design but is unusual in that few fountains were built according to this theme. In 2017, a AU$350,000 refurbishment project was undertaken. The restoration project included repairs and repainting of the balustrade and masonry, including repainting and re-rendering the plaster work as well as plumbing and electrical work. References

Vision Apartments

Vision Apartments is a residential skyscraper built in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. As of 2024, the skyscraper is the seventeenth–tallest building in Melbourne. History By early 2009, the Brady Group were proposing to build a residential skyscraper on a site adjacent to the Queen Victoria Market car park. The 1,030 m2 site, which previously hosted a 150–year–old hotel, was bought at an auction for $AUD11.8 million by the property developer, in 2008. After minor changes to design, The Brady Group officially re–launched the project in 2011, wherein plans were tabled for a residential skyscraper which would reach 223 metres (732 feet) in height. The proposal included more than 500 residential apartments spanning across 69 levels, in addition to three basement levels. Approval for the project was granted in November 2012, by the then–Planning Minister, Matthew Guy. Construction on the $400–500 million project commenced in October 2013, whereby a completion date was estimated for some time in mid–2016. During construction, the Melbourne City Council discovered that two of three basement car-park levels had not been constructed, despite being present within the 2011 plans for the project; nevertheless, the developer had submitted minor planning amendments to Minister Guy, as to reflect the failure to build the two additional levels. By July 2016, the skyscraper had topped out, and had been completed a few months later. Vision Apartments is currently the fifth–tallest residential building within the Melbourne CBD core, the ninth tallest residential building in Melbourne, and the seventeenth–tallest building in Melbourne overall.

Vision Apartments

Vision Apartments es un rascacielos residencial situado en Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. A fecha de 2018, es el octavo edificio más alto de Melbourne. Historia A principios de 2009, el Brady Group propuso construir un rascacielos residencial en una parcela adyacente al aparcamiento del Queen Victoria Market. La parcela tenía 1030 m² y había albergado previamente un hotel de ciento cincuenta años de antigüedad, y fue comprada en una subasta por 11,8 millones de dólares por la promotora en 2008.​ Tras cambios menores en el diseño, The Brady Group retomó oficialmente el proyecto en 2011, año en el que presentó la propuesta de un rascacielos residencial que alcanzaría los 223 m de altura​​ y tendría más de quinientos apartamentos distribuidos en 69 plantas, además de tres sótanos.​ El proyecto fue aprobado en noviembre de 2012 por el entonces ministro de urbanismo Matthew Guy.​ La construcción del edificio, que costó 400–500 millones de dólares, empezó en octubre de 2013, y se estimó que se finalizaría a mediados de 2016.​​ Durante su construcción, el Ayuntamiento de Melbourne descubrió que no se habían construido dos de los tres sótanos de aparcamiento, a pesar de estar presentes en el proyecto de 2011 del edificio; no obstante, la promotora había presentado modificaciones menores de planificación al ministro Guy para reflejar que no se habían construido estas dos plantas.​ En julio de 2016, el rascacielos fue coronado, y se completó unos pocos meses después.​​ Vision Apartments es actualmente el segundo edificio residencial más alto del Hoddle Grid de Melbourne (ligeramente más bajo que 568 Collins Street), y el octavo edificio más alto de Melbourne.​ Véase también Anexo:Edificios más altos de Melbourne Anexo:Edificios más altos de Australia Referencias Enlaces externos Wikimedia Commons alberga una categoría multimedia sobre Vision Apartments.

Leckhampton, Kangaroo Point

Leckhampton is a heritage-listed villa at 69 Shafston Avenue, Kangaroo Point, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was designed by Alexander Brown Wilson and built from 1889 to 1890 for Charles William Snow. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992. History Considered to be the work of noted architect Alexander B Wilson, Leckhampton was built for Charles William Snow shortly after he purchased the land in 1889. Snow was a prominent city jeweller (his son Charles Smethurst Snow was the founder of the Boy Scouts in Queensland). He died in 1913 and the house remained in the Snow family until 1924. Leckhampton was owned by George and Jessie Hughes from 1924 to 1947. Leckhampton was converted into flats by the 1960s. In 1984, the building was refurbished as office accommodation. As part of the redevelopment a similarly styled building was constructed next door. Description Leckhampton is a two-storeyed brick house with a ribbed iron hipped roof. The front and south-east side of the house are sheltered on both levels by deep verandahs which feature decorative cast-iron balusters, columns and friezes. A square, double-storeyed bay, surmounted by a parapet, projects from the northern corner of the main facade. Entry is through a pedimented doorway which leads to a vestibule hall and stairway lit by an impressive stained glass window. Two single-storeyed enclosed verandahs have been added to the rear. A new paved entertainment and pool area behind the house link Leckhampton with the new building. Heritage listing Leckhampton was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992 having satisfied the following criteria. The place is important in demonstrating the evolution or pattern of Queensland's history. Leckhampton provides evidence of an expression of confidence during the 1880s by a prominent businessman and of the earlier affluent residential character of parts of Kangaroo Point. The place is important in demonstrating the principal characteristics of a particular class of cultural places. Leckhampton is significant as an externally intact and aesthetically pleasing example of a large, late nineteenth century, city residence on the southside.
