This multi-storey development includes nine commercial tenants on the ground floor with six storeys of high-end apartments above
Located in the heart of the vibrant Victoria Park commercial strip, this multi-storey development aimed to bring much needed high-end apartment accommodation to a fast growing community.
Our job? Acoustics, civil, electrical, mechanical, and structural design. The façade design controls noise intrusion from the busy Albany Highway and commercial activities, and special considerations—such as a smart kitchen exhaust design and acoustic treatment for large AC equipment—were also made to reduce adverse impacts to the apartments from the commercial food and beverage tenants.
With the use of solar panels and other energy-saving initiatives, including the use of prefabricated basement retaining wall formwork, 650 Albany Highway achieved a four-star Green Star rating. The development includes over 100 residential apartments, underground parking, a showcase barbecue balcony, and luxurious common areas.
Simon Lau, Principal, Structural Project Technical Lead
It’s the permanency of structural design that I enjoy most—the connection with tangible buildings that I can point to and say, “I did that.”
Alex Deluca, Associate, Project Manager Commercial Leader, WA
Every job is unique; I like to identify the best strategy to suit the structure, budget, and program while preserving architectural intent.
