Does Australia really deserve such ostentatiously ugly blots on their skylines?
Perhaps they are thinking of the tax revenues on its operation.
That close to the sea, though? Or is the illustration deliberately foreshortened? I don't know what that coast is like for storms, though of course it won't be affected by rising sea-level within its lifetime (likely only several decades) 'cos the President won't allow the sea to rise anywhere near his properties.
The article shows the developers are confident it will be built, so presumably they are among the shareholders, but surely they can't be 100% certain.

@ArishMell We have our moments. Like the Irwins Australia Zoo and a few others.. And city folk tend to be like city folk in most Countries. But generally speaking its built into us to be easy going and fair to all..And those who arent are not favoured. I assume you know of the "Tall Poppy Syndrome". We cut them down.. Its alright to be rich or smart. Just dont make a fuss about it..😷

@bookerdana Fair point.. Even I am amazed at how quickly everything has turned to merde for America. I would have put money on one of his own secret service people taking him out by now. But I was banging on about Americas economy before Trump came on the scene. I did not count on the clown show that has gone with it. There is hardly an adult in the room..😷

@CreyvinMoorhead I would have to second that. If not personally, he certainly stands for everything most Australians are instinctively against..😷

@CreyvinMoorhead Oh - I didn't know feelings were that strong!
