DOWN COMES THE SCAFFOLDING

Progress on the Kiaora Lands (Woollies) Development became clear a few days ago when scaffolding was taken down to give the first glimpses of the new buildings. 

Looks like the development is on track for completion of stage one in the third quarter of 2014. 

The project is designed to revitalise Double Bay with plans to redevelop the existing Woolworths site on New South Head Road, Council's Kiaora Lane and Anderson Street car parks and a number of properties in Kiaora Road and Patterson Street.

The development will include new retail shops, Woolworths supermarket and grocery stores, cafes and speciality shops. It will also include a 2,300 square metre new Double Bay Library, giving residents access to state-of-the-art facilities. These businesses will all be supported by a new car park that will provide a total of 442 public parking spaces.

"SCIUE SCIUE" - OPENING 5.00PM TUESDAY 18/2/14 - 440 NEW SOUTH HEAD ROAD DOUBLE BAY

Great news for "Double Bayers" who like Italian food.

The new Italian Restaurant "Sciue Sciue" will be opening at 5.00pm on Tuesday 18/2/14 - Apparently the name means "quickly quickly" in Naples - It's a traditional style that's been around for a long time and if it matches the rave reviews of its namesake in Rome we are in for a treat.

Map

Ranked 439 out of 7,721 restaurants in Rome it got this visitor review:-

"On our last day in Rome, my husband and I were just walking around the streets of Rome while looking for a place for lunch. We decided to give this place a try as we really liked how the place looked. WE were SO happy this was our last meal in Rome, as everything we had was just incredibly good! We will definitely go back next time we are in Rome!"

Advance With Health specialises in Integrative Therapy bringing together a wide range of healing disciplines and fashioning individual treatments specific to each clients need. My philosophy is described in two words:-

• Integrate – to bring together or incorporate (parts) into a whole.
• Heal – to make healthy, whole, or sound; restore to health; free from ailment.

Integrative Healing describes my own multi-disciplinary approach to healing. First, I consider all interacting components that make you who you are – your body, mind, emotions and spiritual force. Second, I determine which modalities, tools and techniques will best restore your health and vitality.

I focus on three in particular:

• Massage
• Living Energy Tune Up
• TRE (Trauma Release Exercises)

In our sessions together, you will feel guided, supported and empowered; ultimately this is about YOU taking control and deciding to change and move forward. That’s why I provide you with a set of ‘Self Care Tools’ to take home and integrate into your day-to-day life.
