Brisbane's latest construction milestones: Featuring Mirvac, Cavcorp + Aria Property
There's a lot happening in Brisbane at the moment, so here's a round up of the latest construction milestones in the city.
Mirvac commence construction on Ashford Residences
Mirvac have now commenced construction on their $81 million Ashford Residences community at Everton Park which includes the creation of a one-hectare eco area alongside the Kedron Brook.
Civil contractor Pensar Infrastructure have been engaged to begin work on the initial stages which will form part of the Ashford Residences project. On completion, Mirvac Residential's new community will feature 124 residences, including 43 freestanding homes and 80 three and four bedroom terrace homes, along with the newly restored heritage Queenslander, 'Murphy's Dairy Residence' and as pictured; The Ashford Club.
Cavcorp connect retail precinct to Luminare
Cavcorp have lodged a proposal to expand their award-winning Long Island retail precinct with a new four-floor fitness and wellness centre. The new development will be the second stage of Long Island and will be built around a central public piazza which will also connect Lucent and the future Luminare building.
The building highlights Cavcorp’s commitment to health and wellness for their residents and locals alike, through the inclusion of two full floors for gyms and a top floor featuring a 25 metre pool, yoga pavilion, magnesium spas, infrared saunas and float tanks. The rooftop even features a vegetable garden.
West End’s Tree House includes over 1000 trees
One of West End’s most exciting developments currently under construction is Aria Living's "Tree House" at 111 Jane Street, opposite Davies Park. Designed by Rothelowman, the 12 storey, 90 apartment residential building aims to merge lush greenery with an architecturally striking form, featuring more than 60 mature trees throughout.
Using an earthy colour palette and incorporating some gorgeous curves, Tree House is a prime example of Aria’s ability to go well above and beyond Brisbane City Council's Buildings that Breathe guidelines with landscape designers RPS at the helm. The capacity to adequately maintain the intense amount of vegetation at Tree House will likely have some impact and dictate future decision making for Aria’s bold new Urban Forest proposal, which is proposed to contain over a thousand trees.
And what’s an Aria development without a stunning rooftop? Tree House certainly doesn’t buck the trend featuring; a 2 storey rooftop with river and city views, an infinity pool, spa, private dining rooms, BBQ facilities and even a playground for the kids.
The development is on track for completion towards the end of the year.
