Upgrade & Remediation Project | Current
BTB Architecture Studio were engaged to undertake an investigation into and to report on options for the remediation and upgrade a 1960’s apartment block, overlooking Sydney Harbour. A report was prepared to detail various scopes of work, broken down into high priority, priority and overall building betterment. As well as addressing high priority issues, centred around BCA compliance, water ingress, hazardous materials and structural issues, BTB has proposed building betterment concepts including the addition of a swimming pool, gym, shared entertainment facilities, sun shading to balconies and internal landscaping to uplift a dark and lifeless atrium. In addition BTB have identified a number of development opportunities relating to the building and its site, which present the opportunity to offset some or all of the remediation and upgrade work to the building itself. BTB is collaborating with a preferred contractor to price the itemised scope of work, drawn from our report. From these documents, the building owners will decide on the extent of work to be undertaken, both essential and optional.
