Adina Hotel complex
Woolstores, Elder Place
At the end of 2002, the proposal for the Adina hotel seems to be have been withdrawn, and what is now planned for the site, between Elder Place and Cantonment Street, looks pretty much like the shopping centre that used to be there (according to Roel Loopers, to whom thanks):
This was the later version of the proposed hotel:
Roel Loopers:
The Adina hotel development on the Fremantle Woolstores Shopping Centre site by Silverleaf Investments is delayed until the end of the year, but with that not so good news also comes the good news for inner city residents that our only supermarket - Coles - will remain open for approximately six months.
An earlier, rejected concept:
Roel Loopers' note about the earlier plan:
Here a first look at the proposed development for the Fremantle Woolstores shopping centre site in Cantonment Street that will house an Adina Hotel.
It will be developed by Fremantle developers Silverleaf. According to a talk Silverleaf boss Gerard O’Brien gave at the Fremantle Network a few months ago, it will also have much needed student housing.
The site is one of thirteen Fremantle CBD sites included in Planning Scheme Amendment 49, which allows for it to have up to eleven storeys, which will make it the tallest building in the city.
It is not an outstanding building, but much better than the provincial country town look of the existing building. It would be the first of the inner East sites to be developed just after the start of the Kings Square Project. The Hilton Doubletree Hotel development at Point Street has been pushed back by two years.
Silverleaf’s Gerard O’Brien said they would keep the Coles supermarket open during construction to retain activity in the area.
This development only needs WA Joint Development Assessment Panel approval, but will be debated at a City of Fremantle Planning Committee soon, where we will be able to see more detailed plans.
