Project Exclusive
Quay Quarter Tower highlights the new standard for what is possible for adaptive reuse in architecture. The building underwent redevelopment in 2018, paving the possibilities for modern design without large environmental impact.
The project was set to reach an ambitious goal, to reuse as much of the existing building as possible. Completed in 2022, their goal was succeeded. QQT retains over 65% of the original structure (beams, columns, and slabs) and 95% of the original core, resulting in an embodied carbon saving of 12,000 tonnes. The iconic structure is a once-in-a-generation project, it proudly sits on the edge of Sydney’s bustling Circular Quay, soring 206-metres.
The redevelopment of QQT continues to be awarded for the innovation and new standard set within the industry. Across 2022-2023 QQT was awarded over 15 national industry awards. Ranging from Environmental Leadership to Development of the Year.
