Groundbreaking mass timber hotel projects are transforming skylines across three continents, showcasing the remarkable versatility and sustainability of engineered wood construction at unprecedented scales.Vancouver is stepping boldly into the future with plans for North America's tallest mass timber hotel—an 18-story structure strategically positioned between Granville Island and Broadway. This pioneering development will transform a long-vacant contaminated rail site into a sustainable architectural landmark, demonstrating how urban renewal and environmental responsibility can beautifully intersect.Meanwhile, Adelaide's ambitious 35-story mass timber hotel project has been revitalized with expanded plans now featuring 324 rooms and luxury double penthouses. This vertical extension of the heritage-listed MLC building in Victoria Square represents an innovative approach to urban densification while honoring historical architecture. With construction by Multiplex scheduled to begin later this year, this Cox Architecture-designed marvel is set to welcome guests by early 2027.Perhaps most revolutionary is Barcelona's Room Community development, where mass timber construction supports a radical vision for collective urban living. Beyond its cross-laminated timber structure and impressive environmental credentials (including 60% landscaped space and net-zero standards), this 51-unit complex reimagines social architecture through gender-inclusive design, communal spaces that foster connection, and thoughtful features supporting caregiving and shared responsibility. Wide south-facing walkways double as social platforms while rooftop gardens provide climate refuges, creating a template for community-centered sustainable living.These projects exemplify how mass timber isn't just changing how we build—it's transforming how we live.

David Heurtel is joined by Dan Delmar, Co-founder of the PR and content firm TNKR Media and Justine McIntyre, Strategic Consultant and former City Councillor on The Big 5. Montreal police made 1 arrest of a (66 year old man) and deployed tear gas after some pro-Palestinian proterstores smashed windows at McGill on Friday evening. The City of Montreal dismantled the encampment set up by pro-Palestinian demonstrators at Victoria Square on Friday. A scooter causing parking problems.

Here in Montreal this morning the City seems to finally be making moves to dismantle the encampment over at Square Victoria. Britain's Labour Party has won in a landslide victory today. With Keir Stamer now elected as the new Prime minister and Rishi Sunak conceding defeat. An advertisement on the windows of about fifteen SAQ branches in Quebec praising "proudly Quebec" products, when they were only bottled in Quebec, has aroused strong reactions.

Also, LPS decide to refund all rates for Victoria Square residents going back 5 years.

Also, Robin Swann wants you to keep paying for hospital parking.

The Executive met to discuss the way forward yesterday.

Also, Two new statues unveiled this month by Belfast City Council have cost over £260,000

Continuing with the coverage of the Victoria Square defective apartments story.

Stephen gets an exclusive interview.

Also, new legislation on the green lane is to come within the 'next few weeks'

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast:(1) Federal Reserve policymakers agreed last month that it would be appropriate to maintain a restrictive stance “for some time,” while acknowledging they were probably at the peak rate and would begin cutting in 2024.(2) Iran said attacks that killed almost 100 people in the central part of the country were carried out to punish its stance against Israel, the latest sign that the war between the Jewish state and Hamas risks widening into a broader regional conflict.(3) The glitzy Victoria Square development, boasting two skyscrapers and a new Hilton Hotel, was to be a new landmark for the London commuter town of Woking. Instead, it stands as a monument to how financial bets by local councils can go badly wrong.(4) Several previously confidential documents related to Jeffrey Epstein were made public in federal court in New York after a yearslong battle over their release.(5) UK businesses are keeping their investment plans on ice because of high debt-servicing costs and a stagnant economy, according to the British Chamber of Commerce. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Imagine if we had enough housing in South Australia. It is possible, according to entrepreneur and developer, Barrie Harrop, our special guest this week. Barrie has plans afoot for building a tall hotel in Victoria Square out of timber, a quality resort in Whyalla, and housing developments that offer free electricity to occupiers while making best use of existing road and rail infrastructure and accommodates people who need affordable accommodation. John Gledhill returns to walk us through some new wines; this time they are fortifieds. And in the Musical Pilgrimage, we hear a small snippet from South Australia's Kaurna Cronin, who is about to take his local music to Europe.

John also gives us a glimpse at the complexity of fortified winemaking. The wines will be available soon on his website: Gledhill Wines. 00:13:16 Barrie Harrop and a green South Australia Someone I've been watching in my LinkedIn feed for some time is Barrie Harrop. Barrie is there, every day, championing anything related to Green Hydrogen, Whyalla, and Sustainable Construction of buildings and houses using Cross Laminated Timber. Among many other things, Barrie is the chair of Thrive Construct, a building and development company that is committed to quality design, life time construction, carbon neutral living, free energy (subject to fair usage) and fast construction. Barrie, although much of your career has focussed on significant scale property development, the one term that seems to tie everything together is entrepreneur. My social media feed would have me believe that South Australia has 17 entrepreneurs for every square metre of the state - every week has some sort of powerful gathering of entrepreneurs, or some sort of award like Best Left Handed Entrepreneur Aged 35 - 30, but in your career, you actually get things done. Could we start by defining what you think makes an entrepreneur a true entrepreneur, and perhaps share a couple of your proudest entrepreneurial successes? Another theme I see running through various "self made" people in my feeds, is how everybody around them is small minded and negative. And I think there's some nuance here. Just because an idea is big or grand or new, does NOT mean it is worthwhile or good. You have had your share of dealing with naysayers, and, one of them that brings this issue to the surface is the Southgate building at the bottom end of King William Street.Back in the 90s, the atypical design for the Adelaide cityscape drew many critics.What was it like, being at the centre of that project, including being the subject of that persistant Financial Review story, entitled, "Developer Adelaide Loves To Hate"? So, Southgate was all about steel but a major theme in your posts over the past year or two has been CLT or Cross Laminated Timber. This material is the centrepiece of your proposed hotel tower for Victoria Square but before we get there, I want to share the story about CLT and also how it's related to building and construction practices in Australia, which I've seen you claim as some of the most wasteful in the world. Turning to Victoria Square, I'm surprised we need a new hotel because everything I have been seeing is talking about scarcity of residential properties in the Adelaide CBD. Can you talk us through why hotel accommodation is the approach you've taken? I'm working with some Flinders University students at the moment and they're grappling with scenarios where a city has a lot of vacant office space and crushing scarcity of residential accommodation. As an entrepreneur and developer, what do you think of the concept of refitting vacant office buildings as residential, or adopting a hybrid approach? Does that have legs, given that landlords traditionally make more money from commercial clients, don't they? Something intriguing about your approach to development is captured in this line on your website: "We're planning the world's largest sustainable and affordable housing projects and as part of the planning we will introduce micro grids (wired and integrated with solar and battery technologies) subject to fair usage clause our model is free energy for our occupients". And you took a shot at the Adelaide City Council's Bus Station redevelopment for its small percentage of affordable accommodation in the mix. How does the affordable accommodation aspect work; what stops investors using tricky methods to steal the affordable allocations away from those in need? Do you have any thoughts on our shrinking Housing Trust stock? Morphettville is being plundered and redeveloped at the moment and a part of me is sad that housing that once helped the less well off is now being converted into little McMansions. You wrote to the Department of Infrastructure a few years ago and you floated one idea to alleviate our lack of affordable housing options. You said 400sqm areas around train stations and tram stops in the suburbs should be rezoned to allow 8-storey developments because it puts people right where transport is and gets the balance right. Do you still hold this view? Have you seen the growth in Mount Barker? Large parts of me die when I see farming land turned over to low densite housing. We can't eat concrete. Where's our food going to come from? Back on the hotel front, you've been writing for some time now that Whyalla is the perfect place for accommodation investment because even broom closets can fetch $200 a night. What is the dynamic at work there and what has you so involved in the town? What makes Whyalla the perfect location for Green Hydrogen production to help us become a green South Australia? I am hearing a lot of criticism about the so-called "dumb" choice of governments backing electric vehicles as the shorthand answer for decarbonising transport, on the basis that our electricity grid, especially in apartment buildings, just can't cope with battery charging. Would hydrogen-fuelled vehicles be an answer or the answer? Finally, I just heard some research being discussed over the weekend about how our ideas get more extreme when we only mix with people who agree with us. How do you keep your ideas sharp and balanced and not given to simple idealism and wishful thinking? Do you have a Devil's Advocate in your circle? 01:07:14 Musical Pilgrimage Given that during the weekend of recording, England reminded us, through the crowning of their/our new king, that they sent people to Australia in the 1800s, it makes sense that we blow a few horns for local singer/songwriter, Kaurna Cronin who will soon be our export back to Europe. He has a number of dates planned - get details and music from the Kaurna Cronin website - but to finish this episode we're going to hear one of his latest songs, Our Way, from his recent album, Harsh Reality.Support the show: https://theadelaideshow.com.au/listen-or-download-the-podcast/adelaide-in-crowd/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Leaders from Perth's Muslim, Buddhist, Bahá'í, Jewish, Hindu and Christian communities are gathering for a combined service today, calling on the Federal Government to take stronger commitments ahead of the 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference next month. The coalition of WA faith leaders want leaders to push for no new coal or gas at the COP27 summit.ARRCC's Geoffrey Bice told 6PR Breakfast host Gareth Parker a multi-faith climate service will be held at St Mary's Cathedral in Victoria Square in Perth at 9.30am today to show there is broad support for their climate action. "We need to be moving away from fossil fuels, and that includes not approving any new coal or gas projects," he told Parker.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Commonwealth Games' closing ceremony is underway at Birmingham's Alexander Stadium. It began with an homage to the city's place in the industrial revolution as dancers carrying items such as levers, bricks and chimneys, stoked the crowd's enthusiasm with this old banger from Dexys Midnight Runners. Right now, athletes from every participating country are assembling at the stadium. The New Zealanders are being led by history-making cyclist Aaron Gate, who's coming home with four gold medals. Being the flagbearer, or Te Pou Hapai, is the "icing on the cake" of a successful games for the 31-year-old Aucklander. Sports reporter Felicity Reid spoke to Guyon Espiner from Victoria Square.

The latest data unofficially marks the start of a recession. Many other countries would class two quarters of decline as a recession, but the US uses different criteria. We get analysis from Sarah House, senior economist at one of America's biggest banks, Wells Fargo. Diageo is one of the world's biggest drinks firms, and it published its latest results today. The company grew both sales and profits. We speak to CEO Ivan Menezes and ask how Diageo is beating the cost of living crunch. Inflation in Turkey could reach an eye-watering 90% this autumn, according to the country's central bank. What does that mean for business owners, and what can they do? We get the views of Ozer Bener, who runs a manufacturing firm in Ankara, and Arev Sebechi, who runs a clothing firm. And as the 22nd Commonwealth Games kick off tonight with the opening ceremony at Birmingham's Alexander Stadium, we get a sense of the atmosphere there from the BBC's Rob Mayor, who's at the festival site in the heart of the city centre in Victoria Square.

The Opening Ceremony for the 22nd Commonwealth Games got underway Alexander Stadium in Birmingham on Friday. RNZ sports reporter Bridget Tunnicliffe spoke to Corin Dann from a Fan Zone at Victoria Square in central Birmingham.

Athletes have begun entering Alexander Stadium in Birmingham at the Opening Ceremony for the 22nd Commonwealth Games. New Zealand's athletes have been led into the stadium by joint flagbearers Joelle King and Tom Walsh, two of the team's best medal prospects. RNZ sports reporter Bridget Tunnicliffe has been following the Ceremony at a Fan Zone at Victoria Square in central Birmingham. She spoke to Corin Dann.

That's a wrap for series 1! We've had so much fun and the feedback has been really encouraging so we've decided to go again in just a few weeks - with more episodes coming in September. Thanks for all your support so far! We're very excited about some of the guests already booked - proper icons from the world of comedy, TV and sport - that's just to start. In the meantime - and before he heads out on tour and to the Edinburgh Fringe - Paddy answers a few of your questions from the bar in his back garden....

If you listen to this podcast, it's fair to assume you're a fan of Paddy Raff's stand up - or maybe his TV show. But did you know that his biggest claim to fame is that he's Claire Rafferty's younger brother? Yes - the actress from The Fall and Derry Girls - that's Paddy's sister! After an appearance in episode 0 when Claire was brought on to fact check some of Paddy's stories, on this occasion the roles are reversed. There's talk of an Abba Tribute band formed after some worrying fraud, accusations of burglary from Steven Gerrard and lots of praise for a legendary goalkeeper with a particularly friendly ma. Meanwhile, Paddy debuts his cover of a classic 1994 track by The Crash Test Dummies.   Claire's IMDb  This & previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms or here Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here Set signage by Off The Wall Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo 

This week we're in 1997 with stand up, podcaster and TV regular, the Offaly good Neil Delamere. Neil's a regular on BBC NI's The Blame Game, 5 Live's Fighting Talk and an arena level stand up in Northern Ireland - in fact, he's back at the SSE next February. He also launched a podcast ‘Why Would You Tell Me That?' just this year. In this episode - Neil, Paddy and producer Rigsy discuss how to hide if you're Bono, which church does the best merch and what it might be like if Hugo Duncan voiced a radio station on Grand Theft Audio. But that all pails to the biggest question of them all - who's your favourite Spice Girl?   Tickets for Neil at The SSE Arena next year Neil's podcast This & previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms or here Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here Set signage by Off The Wall Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo 

Mike Edgar is a genuine broadcasting legend - presenting Across the Line on BBC Radio Ulster during the late 80s and entire 1990s. Previous to that he was the drummer in Cruella De Ville - a post-punk band very much expected to be ‘the next big thing' upon signing to EMI back in 1983 - Mike's Wonder Year. Later in life, Mike would go on to become one of the biggest execs at the BBC in Northern Ireland - producing or overseeing a string of huge TV shows and one-off events. In this episode, Mike talks about moving to London, hanging up on Brian May (before an encounter with Freddie Mercury), the rock legend he thought might steal his wife and how he regrettably dismissed one of the biggest selling records of all time. Also discussed - some of the insane antics he signed off on while looking after early Paddy Kielty TV shows.   This & previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms or here Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here Set signage by Off The Wall Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo

Singer-songwriter and social media star Janet Devlin didn't have to pick 2011 as her Wonder Year. We'd assumed she'd be sick talking about arriving on the scene via The X Factor - finishing fifth behind eventual winners Little Mix. Then again that really was her formative year - not just because of her antics with Cowell & co - that' when she did her last exams at school and started heading out with her mates. So - alongside talk of a crime spree in the The X Factor house and studying for exams while on a plane to Kelly Rowland's gaff in Miami, Janet also talks about a regrettable teenage crush, having to wait for the paps to clear off before picking up her GCSE results and how online perverts just don't put enough effort in.   Follow Janet on Instagram and check our her music here This & previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms or here Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here Set signage by Off The Wall Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo

This week Lisburn native and CBeebies presenter Gyasi Sheppy joins Paddy to revisit his choice Wonder Year - 2007.  While there's plenty of chat about children's TV and how Gyasis began his journey towards TV stardom at the age of 16 - 2007 was the year of the Big Brother racism scandal and the smoking ban - which resulted in Paddy being regularly left alone with a bunch of jackets. We also learn how Gyasi - the only person of colour in his friendship group - struggled to find a decent fake I.D on his quest to head for a night out in Moira.   Follow Gyasi on Instagram This & previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms or here Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here Set signage by Off The Wall  Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo  

This week's Wonder Year is 1993 - the choice of renowned stand up and musician Teresa Livingstone. We found out how back in '93 Teresa actually kickstarted the peace process here by writing a powerful Christmas song about death that was so good it made it on to UTV. Having sorted out Northern Ireland - she then took a crack at helping the people of Rwanda with her less successful follow up single. Furthermore, 1993 was the year Teresa witnessed Mr Blobby crowd surfing at Christmas mass and there's also talk of a major onstage wardrobe malfunction as she sang karaoke. Meanwhile, Paddy can't stop talking about Celine Dion.   Tickets to Teresa's show at The Waterfront Hall in October.  This & previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms or here.

Julian Simmons is as close as we have to a national treasure in this part of the world. For someone with a seemingly insignificant gig (doing continuity on UTV) it's testament to his warmth and personality that he's ended up an icon of the small screen!  Selecting 1982 as his Wonder Year, we meet Julian before he became a regular visitor to our living rooms - when his ambitions lay within his job with Air Canada rather than becoming a local celebrity. We also learn about encounters with inevitable homophobia - and how he became something of an unusual role model and inspiration for young gay men in what was a pretty backward corner of the planet back in the early ‘80s.  Some cracking music and fashion choices discussed as well….   This & previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms or here Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here Set signage by Off The Wall Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo

Emer Maguire is one of the most exciting comedy talents in the country at the moment - her blend of stand up, music and science (yes, really) generating a great deal of hype and critical acclaim. Her selected Wonder Year was 2003 - during which (as you'll hear) Emer was both a young fashionista and lyrical gangster. She talks about the particularly obscene lyrics which concerned her mother and the song she sang to incorporate her entire estate. And of course the burning question - who was her favourite S Club 7 member? Meanwhile, Paddy reveals he thought a ‘sex machine' was something you'd likely find in a factory.   This and previous eps are available to listen to on all major platforms here.

This time around, breakfast TV and general 'yr one off the telly' Holly Hamilton picks 2004, when she upped sticks and headed to the biggest of big smokes - erm, Dundee. Turns out Holly's first year away from home was as rock n' roll as Paddy's - i.e not very rock n' roll at all. This despite some unfortunate piercings and colourful alcopop / shot combos.   Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here The Wonder Year sign by Off The Wall  Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo   

For the opening episode of The Wonder Year, it's only fair the show's host reveals which year made HIM the man he is and why (so we can find out what went wrong and prevent it ever happening to anyone else).   Paddy's sister Claire Rafferty - a renowned actor in her own right (Derry Girls, The Fall) - joins as official fact checker - just in case Paddy tries to spoof about being cool back in his early teens. But we shouldn't have worried - he was an absolute dork and seems oddly happy to admit it.   Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here The Wonder Year sign by Off The Wall  Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo   

He won Six Nations Championships with Ireland, played in two World Cups and was a superstar at Ulster (all the while scoring numerous memorable tries) yet Paddy managed to not talk to ANDY TRIMBLE about rugby. Which is some going.   Instead the focus is on the heady days of 1999 when Andy was having run-ins with the peelers while trying to make it as a rockstar - playing Rage Against the Machine covers in his local church's crèche.   Meanwhile, a young Paddy Raff is busy working out how best to utilise his genius plan to be the very first person in a brand new millennium to utter a very specific phrase.   Thanks to our sponsors Victoria Square, grab your giftcard here The Wonder Year sign by Off The Wall  Music by Alpha Chrome YaYo

Live streaming from Cannibal Radio in Athens, Greece, we introduce you to four of the city’s young culture makers. My co-hosts are Rena Bak and Simos Ares, two of the independent radio station’s forty producers. They both specialize in electronic music. Joining us in the studio are two Athens residents involved with documenta 14, the  international art exhibition presented every five years in Kassel, Germany. For the first time this year, documenta comes to both Kassel and Athens. Katerina Nikou, assistant curator of document 14 Public Programs in Athens, describes the talks, programs and performances and the television broadcast of a short film series designed to engage locals. Also on the air with us is Nikos Nikolopoulos, a filmmaker working with American Rick Lowe on a community project with residents in the neighborhood surrounding Victoria Square. In the past two years, Victoria Square, historically a neighborhood park and public gathering space, has served as the site of a refugee camp. Note: Today, May 17, 2017, workers staged a 24-hour general strike in Athens to protest the voting on new austerity measures proposed by the government. The strike halted the metro to the airport, flights to and from Athens and city bus service. The following conversations represent the second take of our program, as a blackout interrupted our first broadcast.
