Flagship McDonalds
Meanwhile, up the road at 130 Queen Street, a development application has been lodged for a new large flagship McDonald’s Restaurant which will replace Jo Jo’s Restaurant.
Fast food giant McDonald’s plans to retrofit the former Jo Jo’s tenancy into a large 903 square metre restaurant with a dining capacity of 100. Works involve facade alterations as well as retrofitting of the existing balcony fronting Queen Street Mall and Albert Street.
Similarly to the adjacent rival Hungry Jack’s, the tenancy is located within a ‘Principal Centre Zone’ and therefore has unlimited hours of operation. The design of the McDonald’s outlet is being undertaken by Landini Associates.
Stefan Ackerie’s Jo Jo’s restaurant is being relocated to a new location on Melbourne Street which is currently under construction.
The DA number for this development is A004610220.
The rooftop bar at 200 Adelaide st is designed by Hames Sharley architects with LAT27 the landscape architects
This is a GREAT DEVELOPMENT. Keep up the GOOD WORK.
It’s just great to see that two of the most prominent corner blocks in our city are now taken up by fast food retail joints. That’s quality right there!
hahahaha, you know the city is in trouble when a ‘flagship’ Macca’s makes the news!
