Sydney developers lodge plans for Adelaide’s tallest tower
Sydney developers JWDT Land are set to make a name for themselves in Adelaide in a ground-breaking fashion.
Future Urban, on behalf of the east-coast locals, has lodged plans for a mammoth 55-storey mixed-use development in the heart of the city, with the plans for 207-209 Pulteney Street on track to be Adelaide’s tallest tower.
The joint venture between developers, Jinwei and Datong, will eclipse the city’s current tallest building – The Crowne Plaza on Frome Street – by 18 levels, with the proposed 180 metre tall tower to deliver a collection of residential apartments, along with ground floor lobby and public dining space, small office/home office (SOHO) apartments, conference facilities, hotel accommodation, and a range of shared-use amenity space.

Located on the southwest corner of Pulteney and Flinders Streets, the project will include a podium and sheer glazed tower, with two large recesses articulating the tower’s form, activated by shared amenity spaces.
The ground floor west facade is set back to provide a covered porte cochere for hotel drop-off and access to the above-ground car parking, with the porte cochere featuring landscaping, seating, and lighting that visually connect the space to the hotel entry foyer and lounge.
The podium will be approximately 37 metres tall, with the view to referencing existing buildings of this scale within the precinct.
Level one of the podium comprises car parking, hotel/residential loading areas as well as apartment storage and bike parking with change room facilities.
Levels two to seven will accommodate car parking and double height SOHO apartments that extend along the full Pulteney Street frontage and part of the Flinders Street frontage.
A double height shared terrace is located centrally on the eastern frontage on level six, while levels eight and 9 are full car parking levels, with conference facilities located on level 10.
The hotel rooms will feature across levels 13 to 20, with apartments from levels 22 to 50 and penthouses on levels 51 to 53.
Along with a string of hotel amenities, residents will also benefit from a triple height shared residential terrace on level 21, along with a Sky Lounge on level 50.
The hotel amenity terrace atop the podium will feature an array of restaurants, fronting both Flinders and Pulteney Streets, along with a pool and a spa.
The residential terrace will feature a communal lounge, cinema room, shared kitchen and dining area, kids play area and a landscape terrace with a variety of seating areas. An additional west facing terrace also features on the level, with landscaped planters, a variety of seating areas and a bookable multifunction room.
