The Construction Journey for Fitzroy Ltd:
Balmain & Co were awarded the construction of Fitzroy Ltd in 2019.
Located a short walk down Gore Street from the Lyric, Fitzroy Ltd is the perfect mix of raw authenticity and an understated elegance combined with an emphasis on city views, light, space and materiality. Consisting of 82 high-end apartments, Fitzroy Ltd sits at 7-levels above ground and features a breath-taking internal courtyard, rooftop garden and a beautifully crafted entrance lobby.
Balmain & Co will be undertaking the early works for this project which involves demolition, excavation, ground preparation, piling, shotcrete, capping beam and basement slabs.
Construction Update: October 2019
Demolition has already wrapped up on site and basement works have since commenced at Fitzroy Ltd. Trucks have been running in and out this week in preparation for the piling rig due on site in the coming weeks. Next month will see piling, capping beam, bulk excavation, shotcrete and ground anchors as we make our way down to the bottom.
