Brookfield Multiplex, a leading global contractor, has just completed Central Equity’s largest project to date – the new $300 million plus residential Southbank Grand Apartments at 151 City Road in Southbank, Victoria.
Located on a prominent corner site bound by City Road, Power and Fawkner Streets, the 43 level tower comprises 515 apartments in a range of configurations including one, two and there bedroom units as well as exclusive penthouses. Southbank Grand also has an eight level podium, with ground floor retail, seven levels of car parking and recreational facilities for residents including an indoor pool, gymnasium, landscaped rooftop garden area and outdoor facilities with BBQ.

We draw upon our vast experience in building residential towers in the busy CBD environment to successfully deliver Southbank Grand,” said Mr Graham Cottam, Regional Managing Director of Victoria at Brookfield Multiplex.
