The Sixty Martin Place development, designed by leading international design practice, HASSELL, and constructed by multinational construction group, LendLease, recently topped out.
Occupying a prominent position on the corner of Martin Place, Phillip Street and Macquarie Street, the building features a dramatic and unique cantilever design, with the northern façade extending out eight metres above the neighbouring St Stephens Church.
The building also incorporates state-of-the-art end-of-trip facilities, a concierge service, cafes and outdoor terraces. It is targeting a minimum 6Star Green Star Office, 5-Star NABERS rating and WELLS platinum.
To date, more than 23,000 cubic metres of concrete have been poured in almost 4,000 trips by concrete trucks – which if they were lined up end to end would stretch 28 kilometres from the CBD to Parramatta.
From now onwards construction work will focus on completing the building’s exterior, with the glass facade installation due to be completed in June.
Group Executive at Investa Michael Cook commented it will be the only premium-grade building to be delivered in Sydney’s CBD this year and sets the benchmark for what an integrated, innovative and modern commercial building can offer.
“With customisable floor plates and panoramic harbour and city views, Sixty Martin Place offers companies the ability to truly create workplaces of the future.”
Construction on Sixty Martin Place commenced in July 2016 and is on track for completion in September 2019.
