The Northpoint Redevelopment was a two-and-half-year project that involved major demolition and removal of existing retail sections of the Northpoint site including strip out of the lower levels of the existing commercial tower and Level 6 basement. The design of the new elements were:
•ÌýÌýÌýÌýA new retail offering to the south of the existing tower over Levels 7 and 8, one hotel level at Level 9 and a rooftop bar and pool at Level 10
•ÌýÌýÌýÌýA new 187-room hotel to the north of the existing tower
•ÌýÌýÌýÌýA new Woolworths Metro store and 26 specialty shops
•ÌýÌýÌýÌýA refurbished commercial lobby
Construction was divided into three main zones to program the logical sequence and work areas.
The judges were impressed with the resolution of stiffening the existing six-storey carpark structure to support the new hotel and the finish and efficiency of the prefabricated bathroom pods.Ìý
Northpoint was a complex, demanding and challenging project that employed a number of innovative construction techniques and required working in an uninterrupted live environment, with more than 4000 staff daily occupying the existing commercial tower.
