Apartment Development
The eastern end of Rundle Street was the site of Adelaide's original fruit and vegetable wholesale markets. These closed in the 1980s and, after a long and controversial decision making process involving some government money, the ''Garden East'' (or ''East End Astoria'') apartment development was built. This was the start of a growing number of prestige apartment buildings in the area.
