I love the look and feel of the curved ramp on the South Brisbane side, the light feel of it underfoot (or tyre) and at night it can be absolutely stunning with its solar panel generated lighting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6470543006314152962.post-44701004183881059512009-10-09T09:21:49.126+01:002009-10-09T09:21:49.126+01:00Note: 1 comment rejected.

I don't like the look of it so far, bit I'll reserve my final descision until construction is finished and all those wires come down." Didn't hear the rest of the comments as this one gave me the giggles.<br /><br />One comment from the guys in the office was that the main deck is stable but the viewing platforms have quite noticeable deck movements around midday traffic. Will check this out soon.<br /><br />If ya would like some pics let us know.<br /><br />IMPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
