Commercial Structural Steel project at Avenger Cresent, Christchurch.
In 2017 we completed all the structural steel for this heritage style building at 177 High St, Central City. One of our favourite features is the laser cut architectural stairway we built at our Bromley factory and had delivered to site and lifted into place as one unit! The building itself was completed stage by stage meaning as each floor was completed we completed a level of structural steel.
Walkway & Structural Steel completed for corrections centre.
