Beacon Consulting - Quantity Survey, Tax Depreciation and Building Certification in Cairns, Townsville and Brisbane

Stockland Shopping Centre, Rockhampton

Project Scope

Designed by Brisbane architecture firm Reddog Architects this project entailed the redevelopment of the existing Stockland Shopping Centre in Rockhampton, which consists of two separate buildings, separated by Moores Creek. 

The project brief included demolition of the oldest part of the shopping precinct to allow for the construction of a new wing linking the southern site to the remaining centre via a retail bridge spanning across Moores Creek.

The centre is seen as an integral part to the shopping lifestyle of the people of Rockhampton. The Bridge Court and The Majors Court.The Bridge Court takes advantage of views over Moores Creek and beyond.  The large glass façade protected from direct sun with metal screening provides visual relief for the shopper. As you move through the centre, natural daylight is provided by long skylights which punctuate the ceiling.  The Majors Court opens to the ground level carpark and is the entry to the two major tenants, Kmart and Coles.

The budget for the project was $A70M. Construction was completed in late 2010.
