2019 Outstanding Construction Award
Built - Anzac Memorial Centenary Project
The Anzac Memorial Centenary project was one of Australia’s most complex and challenging heritage public building construction projects.
Located in the south-west corner of Hyde Park within the Sydney CBD, construction was highly constrained, with limited access to the site off Liverpool Street (a high-density traffic street), restricted working hours and a small work zone.
The buildability of the project was challenging, requiring the existing heritage building facades to be enclosed with scaffolding. This was followed by the excavation and underpinning of the existing heritage structure. The technically difficult construction and installation of additional structures required the creation of a new underground space and relocation of an 80-year-old Hill’s Weeping fig tree to allow for the construction of a stepped water fountain.
The restoration and refurbishment works, together with the additions, were carried out using the highest quality of materials and construction techniques, with great attention to detail. The completed project could not have been achieved to such a high standard without a truly collaborative approach by the builder, client, consultants, specialist contractors and suppliers.
