Brookfield Office Properties Inc. announced that is commencing construction of the second tower at Brookfield Place Perth.
Tenant pre-commitments for approximately 40 percent of the 16-level, 34,000-square-meter (366,000 square feet) premium-grade office tower include professional services firms Deloitte and Corrs Chambers Westgarth, as well as Brookfield Multiplex.
Brookfield Place Tower 2 will have large, efficient, column-free floor plates of approximately 2,100 square meters (22,600 square feet), conference facilities, and 110 parking spaces and is targeting a 5-Star NABERS base building energy rating. The project also incorporates a sheltered upper-level walkway across Mounts Bay Road to provide greater connectivity between the Perth Bus Port, Esplanade Train Station and Perth’s City Centre.
Construction of the new office tower will be undertaken by Brookfield Multiplex and is expected to be completed late in 2015.
