The Watson (named after indigenous artist Tommy Watson, whose works dazzle here) is a sassy, multilevel 115-unit complex 4km north of the CBD in Walkerville (an easy commute). Once upon a time these rooms were government Department of Infrastructure offices. Today's infrastructure includes a gym, a lap pool, 24-hour concierge, free bikes, free parking and car hire… Nice one!
