Brisbane Waterfront is an office building in the Brisbane central business district in Queensland, Australia. It is set to become a business and tourist destination that maximises its prime riverside location. Soben’s detailed bills of quantities meant John Holland could maintain accurate budgets and make informed financial decisions – at every stage of this iconic project.
The development will create an extravagant area, connecting the river and the city. Work includes the redevelopment of the existing Eagle Street Pier and Waterfront Place sites to deliver a new public precinct encompassing two premium commercial towers, riverfront dining, retail space and a large landscaped public realm. The proposed development incorporates an elevated podium level above open terraced ground floor plazas which will anchor the two commercial towers.
