Ermington homeowners Paul and Alison Henry with daughter Sidney, 2, said they love being at the centre of Sydney. Picture: Justin Lloyd. RAMPANT high- rise apartment construction in the inner city has been pulling Sydney ’s population centre east for the first time in more than 200 years of European settlement, as the housing boom pushes development up rather than out. An analysis of Australian Bureau of Statistics data showed the population centre of Sydney is now Ermington — 2km east of previous centre Rydalmere — in an area of the suburb sandwiched between Silverwater Rd and the northern bank of the Parramatta River, roughly 20km northwest of the CBD. Sydney’s centre had been south of the river in the suburb of Silverwater during the 1980s and later moved northwest to Ermington in the 1990s and west again to Rydalmere in the early 2000s before moving back to Ermington. ABS director of demography Andrew Howe said the shift east was significant considering the population centr...

CHEYENNE – It has been a tumultuous couple of months for a tidy suburban neighborhood in north Cheyenne . Residents of The Bluffs started hearing about the affordable apartment complex planned for their western border near Converse Avenue in mid-spring. They got a presentation from Summit Housing Group at Anderson Elementary School , which sits in the northwest corner of the neighborhood, not long afterward. By most accounts, things became heated pretty quickly . “We tried to explain the project to community,” Summit senior project manager Sam Lang said. “But they just said, ‘We don’t want this.’” A similarly passionate Cheyenne Planning Commission meeting followed July 5. Commissioners’ attempts to explain their reasoning for recommending approval of rezoning and the importance of having affordable housing in the community came off to many in the crowd of Bluffs neighbors as politically correct nonsense . Similar concerns persisted in City Council committee meetings , though t...

Kevin moved into a smaller apartment in a prime location and found himself facing the blank slate of a unit in a new building. A fan of both small spaces and hotel living, he jumped at the opportunity to transform the apartment into a boutique hotel inspired suite of his own. (Image credit: Submitted by Kevin) From Kevin: I moved from 1,000 square feet to 540 to be on the Potomac River in DC's Wharf Development. The new construction offered a blank slate to style into an executive suite . While the building is on the river, the apartment has an interior courtyard view . This meant I needed to style the space in a way that felt like a luxurious hotel suite filled with art and design pieces that make the rooms come to life and offer visual stimulation at all hours of the day. After long walks along the river with my dogs, I wanted to return home and bask in the western exposure sunlight or light up the artwork in the evening to relax and get inspired. I wanted to transform the ...

Quizzes Lists Topics Save The Saxony Apartment Building is a historic apartment building in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Located along Ninth Street in the city's downtown, [1] this five- story brick building includes a distinctive range of architectural details. Among these elements are brick pilasters and projections, a three- story bay window on each side of the symmetrical main facade , semicircular balconies , and many stone pieces, such as pediments, keystones, and stringcourses.
