Roof is on, and I would assume the interior fit out is further along than that image despite being posted on DW Social yesterday.

Thanks @Jordan M. well yes, construction would certainly want to be well along from that picture. Realistically that side of things should be done by now. They've got their work cut out for them for sure!

I mean you don’t get the extra month that you get from a direct purchase. I’d say the extra month is a better deal.

Facade progressing well, very curvy. First batch of windows in.

The second section of glass facade is just starting to be put into place right now.

So are they stairs or turbines? Looks like a ground hole driller at the moment.

They're not stairs or turbines because you concluded they're "a ground hole driller". 

Do you often talk to yourself and when did you start?

[pushbutton]

[Thrill Seeker]

I was correct as of the other week. Those windows are where the stairs are located. I went for a look myself on Saturday!

I thought this place looked familiar. The Roma Street Magistrates Court.

No, I’ve never been in there...

@Glubbo well spotted.

This photo has the similarities, albeit in two different spots (glass to the left & metalwork directly in front)

The render looks nothing like it, at the moment the actual structure doesn't resemble the render much either.

I just found another identical building! I think this one is in London or somewhere.

Dreamworld made an application to Gold Coast City Council (not a link to the application - see the paragraph at the end of the post) on December the 1st:

Quote

Application descriptionALTERATION TO THEATRE & SHOP & NEW CONSTRUCTION OF SPECIAL STRUCTURE GMA 20180144

Oddly, the application isn't for DW's main lot. It's for the lot between the main roundabout outside DW and Oakey Creek. However, unless it's for the "special structure", this is highly likely a mistake on Gold Coast City Council's part as a recent application for a shop in Westfield Coomera was listed as for DW's excess land instead. That was later found to be a clear error.

As far as I am aware, Dreamworld's plans have not yet been approved by a private certifier but, according to Gold Coast City Council, they are "in progress" of being assessed by the private certifier.

I'd add a link to the relevant Gold Coast City Council application but from previous attempts to link applications from there in recent months, I've found it will just lead to an error message for you all due to the recent information technology system upgrade the Council implemented.

The plans are approved.  It can take months for pdonline to update.
