- We are very
pleased to announce that Matt Murray and Ben Wilson are now
Principal Directors of the business, spear heading an exciting
growth phase for the business.
- CJ Arms &
Associates have joined ABN Amro in bidding for the Victorian
School's PPP project with the Axiom team.
- CJ Arms &
Associates have joined with Brookfield Multiplex for the $200 mill +
Biosciences project in Victoria.
- CJ Arms & Associates have recently completed the master planning
for the redevelopment of the Royal Hobart Hospital. This is a new $1
billion Hospital for Hobart and we are partnering with Bassett in
the project. The Minister for Health and Human Services, Lara
Giddings, said the new hospital project is a unique opportunity to
incorporate ESD principles - such as energy efficiency, the
reduction of greenhouse gas emission, indoor environment quality and
waste minimisation - into a major public facility from the very
beginning. "A major focus of the New Royal Project is to maximise
sustainability and efficiency and ensure a comfortable and
productive working environment," Ms Giddings said.
- CJ Arms & Associates have joined with ABN Amro on the PPP bid of
the $500mill + Prison Project in South Australia.
- CJ Arms & Associates have been appointed the hydraulic Engineer in
a "pro bono" capacity for the Common Ground project with Grollo, a
$50 million inner-city homeless shelter at cost, for which Grollo,
CJ Arms and other suppliers are together forgoing up to $15 million
profit. "In terms of homeless people, in terms of providing all of
the services coming together, this is a great development and
couldn't have happened without this partnership approach," Mr.
Brumby said. Construction is due to begin in July or August and is
expected to be finished in 2010. Chief executive Daniel Grollo said
it was part of a new direction the company had adopted in recent
years. "Building and development companies like ours have delivered
great outcomes in terms of the built form, but have probably not
paid due respect to the social footprint they leave behind," Mr
Grollo said. The chairwoman of Yarra Community Housing, Linda
Hoskins, said the new project would be a blessing for many
Melburnians struggling to find a place to live.
- C.J.Arms have recently been appointed to work with Grimshaw
Architects on the proposed Victorian Desalination plant on behalf of
the Plenary team bid . The development of Victoria’s $3.1 billion
desalination plant is a Public Private Partnership and will be
located in the Wonthaggi region, providing an additional 150 billion
litres of water annually, the single largest boost to Melbourne’s
water supply since the Thomson dam was built 25 years ago. The
desalination plant will use reverse osmosis technology to convert
sea water into drinking water, which will be piped some 85
kilometres to connect to Melbourne’s water supply system near
Cardinia Reservoir. Renewable energy will be purchased to offset the
expected 90 megawatts of electricity a year required to run the
plant. Project development continues in a number of additional
areas, including ipeline route and power supply connection options.
Construction of the plant will start in 2009, and water will flow
into Melbourne’s storages by the end of 2011.
- C.J.Arms was appointed Hydraulic engineers for Westfield Fountain
Gate $200mill shopping centre re development. Located on the Princes
Highway, approximately 45 km south east of the CBD, Westfield
Fountain Gate is the largest Discount Department Store based
shopping centre in Melbourne and is located in the fastest growth
area in Victoria.
Its expansion from approximately 43,000 squre metres to
approximately 81,000 square metres has created an even greater and
more comprehensive shopping experience that offers seven major
stores, over 250 specialty stores, parking for over 4,000 cars and a
state-of-the-art Village 10 Cinema Complex.
- CJ Arm have been appointed hydraulics engineers on the new
Parkville Neuroscience Facility, located on the corner of Royal

and developmental biology groups, the Florey Neuroscience Institute
(FNI) and the Mental Health Research Institute (MHRI). |
