In an Australian first, this project repurposes two existing buildings to become one state-of-the-art commercial building by merging the floor plates as well as adding 7 levels above. This complex engineering process has enormous environmental benefits, with 90% of the existing structure being reused leading to a lower carbon footprint and less pollution. To connect the two buildings together, the precast panel facade was removed and new post-tensioned floor slabs with new supporting columns were constructed in the 13 metres that separated the existing buildings.

Australian-First Sees Two Buildings Joined Together for Brisbane’s Midtown Centre

155 Charlotte St

Two 1980’s government office buildings are being ‘stitched’ together and topped with 7 new levels to create a single A-grade office complex, which the structural engineer says 'demanded a process of staged demolition and propping to support the retained structure.'
