#Flashback to the incredible and rapid construction of Aurora Melbourne Central. 👀 1. Speedy Construction: The $730m project progressed quickly, completing a level every week at its peak. Starting construction in 2015 and completing in 2019, Aurora Melbourne Central was built by Probuild. 2. Record-Breaking Heights: At 286 meters and 86-storeys, Aurora Melbourne Central is the 3rd tallest building in Melbourne but was the 2nd tallest when completed, only to be overtaken by Australia 108. 3. Innovative Design: The building’s sleek, crystalline facade was designed by Elenberg Fraser, a leading architectural firm known for its creative and environmentally conscious designs. 4. Foundation Challenge: The construction team had to excavate more than 40 meters below ground level to lay a solid foundation, a task made even more challenging by the urban setting. 5. Sustainable Approach: Aurora incorporated energy-efficient systems, water-saving fixtures, and other green building practices. The reinforcing steel supplied by InfraBuild Construction Solutions comprises recycled steel material and aided in earning its sustainability ratings
