Manly Twenty95

Twenty95 is a mixed-use redevelopment comprising residential and retail components on the site of a Telstra Exchange.

The development encompasses 24 prestige apartments, over 600m2 of retail space, a multi-level basement car stacker and a refurbished Telstra Exchange.

The project was undertaken in two stages – an initial Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) phase followed by a D&C phase. The scope of work included significant electrical substation works and modifications to the existing Telstra Exchange, which had to be fully operational throughout the construction phase. This meant considerable engineering value was required to ensure suitable construction methods were employed. 

Our role
