Niecon Developments has launched an exciting new industry magazine called Property Tempus.

The glossy lifestyle magazine was unveiled at the Company’s real estate industry Gala Cocktail Party to an audience of over 130 guests.

The magazine depicts the unique Broadbeach lifestyle and is available at leading agents across the Gold Coast and at selected national and international outlets.

Property Tempus features a selection of stories on the history of Broadbeach, international celebrity and Niecon ambassador Tara Moss  right through to the design elements of the sensational apartments soon to be unveiled at The Oracle.

Leading Gold Coast real estate agents were given the royal treatment at a special industry event hosted by Niecon Developments last week.

Over 120 of the Coast’s top agents were treated to a special evening at Bruce Lynton BMW to hear about the development of  The Oracle as the gigantic project gets closer to completion.

It was the first major industry event for 2010 for the Coast’s agents with many using the oportunity to catch up on industry news and market trends.

Niecon CEO, Con Nikiforides gave an overview of the project’s progress and sales news providing agents and launched the new Oracle magazine - Property Tempus.

Media were recently given the opportunity to view The Oracle for the first time since construction commenced to see the transformation of the icon site.

Members of the Gold Coast Bulletin editorial team were given a conducted tour through the comerical and residential components so they could view the enormity of the project.

With local interest now peaking, media stories will be on the increase as the project gets closer to  completion.

Speculation is growing in professional surfing circles as to whether the famed Kirra Point might actually be on its way back after years of being knocked off the top post by other Aussies hot spots.

With a 2metre swell on Saturday, surfers and onlookers alike were thrilled by the return on the big waves on the famed point.

As surfing numbers swell on the southern beaches as the buzz grows around the upcoming titles, some of Australia’s best known names have been engaged in debate over whether the best barrels in the country could once again reine supreme when the sand dredging ceases.

After taking a surf on Monday world champion Mick Fanning twittered that he had just surfered Kirra and its wasn’t back but World number 3 Bede Durbidge didn’t agree, saying it was good be back surfing at Kirra.

Reports in yesterday’s Sunday Mail created interest amongst enthusiasts with SeaFM surf reporter Blake McKinnon stated as saying a debate was raging about Kirra’s famed break was back.

The big swell brought hundreds of onlookers to the southern Gold Coast over the weekend to view some of the world’s best in action.

Leading cafe group Aromas Tea & Coffee Merchants has officially opened at Nirvana By The Sea on Monday.

The swanky upmarket cafe takes pride of place on the foreshore at Kirra and already has drawn a swarm of locals and tourists in its first couple of days of operations.

Famous for its premium coffee and teas, sweet treats and savory delights as well as its hip staff and chic music, Aromas is sure to make its mark on the changing face of Kirra.

And  the openings hours ar sure to be a hit, seven days from 6am to 11pm.

More select retailers will be opening shortly on Nirvana including Mist on Febuary 14th joing Aromas Tea & coffee Merchants and highly successful new tentant, My Gelato.

 2010 is certainly going to be a monumentous year for the Gold Coast, with the largest development on the eastern seaboard moving forward at a swift pace.

The next major milestone will be installation of the roof canopy on the western tower in January while the internal construction lift will be commissioned in the Eastern Tower early in the new year.

When the Grocon team comes back from the Christmas break, work will commence on the unique exterior finishes creating the colour and soul of the podium levels and boulevard precinct.

Works are underway on the Gold Coast Highway and Elizabeth Avenue to create new traffic flow as part of the preparation for the Oracle Boulevard.

The retail and commercial precinct is starting to take shape as the inter-tenancy walls are framed in the commercial spaces and glazing and paint finishes applied to the Podium.

Work has also started in the beachside park as part of the beautification of the area in preparation for the launch next year.
