Gorgeous Goods Shed North
Docklands master developer VicUrban has moved into the sumptuously-refurbished Goods Shed North building which runs between Collins and Bourke streets in Docklands.
Some 600 staff from VicUrban, the Building Commission and the Plumbing Industry Commission will inhabit the $63 million renovation.
The building is Victoria’s first heritage building to achieve a 5 Star Green Star Rating for its environmental values.
Among its environmental credentials are:
- Active chilled beam heating and cooling;
- Gas-fired tri-generation power generating power on-site;
- Underfloor ventilation system;
- Rainwater harvesting;
- Grey water system for toilet flushing;
- Constructed from mostly recyclable materials;
- Dedicated bicycle storage; and
- No car parking (encourages sustainable travel to work).
