Project Profile

The Galleria at 385 Bourke Street is a 41 level, A-Grade Office Tower with two levels of ground floor retail with over 45 retail tenancies located in a prime CBD location. The Galleria features a prominent corner location and a splayed building orientation allowing for enhanced natural light and view opportunities.

The works undertaken in this chapter of the building’s history was to combine six existing tenancies into one in preparation for incoming tenant Kathmandu to take possession and carry out their fit-out works.

Codicote had been working on the asset since 2009. Our expertise in retail delivery as both the Builder and Client-side Project Manager enabled us to complement the Development Team to ensure the best outcome for all involved.

Codicote was appointed by Dexus to manage the design, tender the works, engage the Building Works Contractor, manage the construction phase and coordinate Kathmandu’s requirements and the concerns of the adjacent tenants.

The design development commenced in November 2014, with work on site starting in March 2015. In accordance with the development programme, the project was completed in July 2015.

The project had many complexities including structural modifications to the base building that required load transfer down through public space into the upper car park levels. In addition, the close proximity to the general public and operating businesses took careful planning and tenancy coordination to appease all building users.
