Woronora is one of Sydney’s first cemeteries, is a heritage-listed property and required archaeologist attendance on site during the excavation process. Being an active cemetery, constant processions and services were run over the course of the project.
The cremator co-ordination was difficult as no information was provided by the manufacturer. This involved scheduling works once the cremator landed on site. Due to the size and weight of the cremators coming from Melbourne, it required a large plant-moving contractor to lift the cremators and skate them into final position. The judges wish to award this project due to its fine detailing and execution of the construction process, which included a very precise Terracade XP façade, specially designed downpipes and highly co-ordinated services.
