NEXTDC has been in negotiations with the Adelaide City Council to purchase the land at 121 Pirie Street, the location of the beach volleyball courts on the corner of Pirie and Frome Street.
The council last May voted to sell off thxjmtzywe beach volleyball facility in a bid to boost its pandemic-hit coffers, despite an overwhelming majority of respondents to public consultation on the matter opposing the sale.
Lord Mayor Sandy Verschoor said NEXTDC is “precisely the type of business we want to see based here”.
“Not only will the sale of 211 Pirie Street see a company with a strong global reputation further cement Adelaide’s reputation as an affordable and innovative place to do business, the investment will be responsibly used for the growth of the city,” she said.
