The Construction Source Australia

6 | Pitman Properties were designed to “attend to everyday com- fort.” From the start, Hollie says the com- pany’s vision for the building was to “lend a glimpse into the past, but while still offering modern character and convenience.” With the finished project, Pitman Prop- erties successfully realised that vision – and their hard work did not go unrecognised. Throughout its construction, Garrison 14 was covered in publications such as the Courier Mail and local Quest Papers, and was featured on the radio and online proj- ect management forum, PM-Now. Also, at the 2013 UDIA Awards for Excellence, the project was nominated as a finalist in the Ur- ban Renewal category. “We’re very proud of that,”Hollie says of the recognition. “We were really excited to be one of three finalists at the UDIA, and we were excited to get recognition within the industry.” “The project was executed how it should have been executed,” she adds. “And it should be recognised in the community for its his- torical value. We really feel like we instilled a historical footprint on the site within a mod- ern buildingand delivered a really great proj- ect.” Holliemainly credits the success of the project to its historical foundations and the foresight to the Director of Pitman Proper- ties, Paul Pitman.
