The eight-storey Administration and Media building “The redevelopment of Melbourne Park will see significant improvements for those attending the many sporting and cultural events held in this precinct each year. The redevelopment will also provide long-term security for the Australian Open event,” said Hassell’s principal, Glenn Scott.
“Our concept creates connections with the many event and sporting venues at Melbourne Park, where many existing structures also comprise a solid base, focused views and large protective roofs.”
With a nominal gross area of 8,700sqm, the building is part of stage two of the $700 million redevelopment of Melbourne Park, which also includes refurbishments to Rod Laver Arena by Cox Architecture and a footbridge over Batman Avenue designed by John Wardle Architects and NADAAA in collaboration.
Work has commenced on site, with completion expected in 2016.
