Rom, God I love ya mate!
He is secretly building a James Bond style mega observatory and needs no more secret agents to thicken the sky.
I live in Hobart -about 10 minutes from the CBD, most of the development is on the eastern city side so that has screwed my skyline N & NE unless you want to do NB.
Pointing west is still a good sky from a city (bortle 6) but if they build the fabled cable car on the Mountain that would screw that.
About 20-30 minutes North of Hobart you are in a rural flat land and if you can afford it (I wish I could) you have great skies.
It's not NZ sky reserve but it is better that the cities.
