Project Description

This project comprised the construction of a high profile landmark showroom on a very small site at the corner of Mt Eden and Boston Roads in Mt Eden. The building was one of the first in New Zealand to use polished Monarc precast panel. The project demanded a high level of finish and accuracy of construction. One of the significant challenges was completing the project with no site laydowns or areas for deliveries to occur given the site location. We delivered a very high quality building on time and within budget.The restraints of the site due to traffic and the general public access were overcome with careful planning and cooperation with Auckland Council.

The Challenge

The project consisted of a high profile landmark showroom on a very small site on the corner of Mt Eden and Boston Roads. The building used the entire site which due to its location had no site laydown or delivery areas.

The Solution

Pre planning was the key to the success of the project. Our project team worked with the consultant team, key subcontractors and Auckland Council to develop a programme and construction methodology that allowed the site constraints to be overcome and the building completed on programme.
