Park Avenue Hotel Redevelopment

BE Collective staff provided Project Management and Contract Administration services for the redevelopment of the Park Avenue Hotel Rockhampton.

This project comprised the external refurbishment, interior design and fit-out of the entire hotel including the Public Bar, Family Dining, Kids Room, Fine Dining, Wine Bar, Function Room, Boardroom, Gaming Room, bars, toilets, kitchen and Bottle Shop. Works were undertaken in 4-stages and the Hotel continued to operate at full capacity throughout construction.

Clever use of the existing structure and retention of bathroom locations minimised the requirement of structural & services changes. Well planned staging of the works enabled minimal disruption to trade. The high-end finishes, reclaimed hardwood timbers, joinery, furniture and fixtures were all sourced out of town, but otherwise the brief was to engage local content as a rule.
