Construction is now underway on Hotel Florin, a landmark hotel development in the heart of Sydney's C*D, with the crane installed and site activity ramping up.

Delivered in partnership with , Icon Oceania and , the Kent Street project is already showcasing innovative thinking on one of the city's most constrained sites.

Hickory's proposed top-down construction methodology allows the team to work from the ground down and the structure up simultaneously, saving six weeks on program while improving logistics and supporting basement retention without ground anchors.

As work progresses, the original 1940s heritage façade, formerly the Universal Pictures headquarters, is being carefully preserved, strengthened and restored, blending Sydney’s history into the new hotel.

Hotel Florin further strengthens our growing presence in Sydney’s C*D, and highlights our ability to deliver complex projects through innovative construction solutions and collaborative partnerships.

Strong teams are built on more than technical expertise. They're built on connection, support, and looking out for one another.

As part of Hickory's Mental Health Awareness Month, we're shining a light on the importance of mental health and wellbeing across our sites.

Last Thursday we celebrated R U OK? Day, and our teams took time to connect with one another, check in on colleagues, and encourage meaningful conversations about mental health.

Supporting our people is central to how we work. Through our network of Mental Health First Aiders, Blue Hats, and the Hickory Help Program, help is always available when needed.

Together, we're helping create a healthier, safer, and more supportive industry.

The crane is up on Kent Street, and Hotel Florin is starting to rise out of the ground.

A detailed project on a constrained Sydney site. Our team is building it top-down — an innovative approach from Hickory that's already saving programme and accelerating works as we rise.

It's busy work. It's what we do best. And there's more of it coming right across Sydney.

NSW's housing and infrastructure ambitions won't be achieved by doing more of the same.

Michael Kouknas, our NSW Manager joined industry leaders to discuss opportunities shaping the future of construction ’s Construction Outlook Breakfast.

With growing pressure on project feasibility, delivery timeframes, workforce capacity and cost certainty, the industry must embrace new approaches that improve productivity and reduce risk.

Michael shared how innovation will play a critical role in the future of our industry. From advanced manufacturing and digital delivery to modern methods of construction, we’re already on the journey to deliver projects with greater certainty on cost, programme and quality while increasing industry capacity to meet growing demand.

Thank you to the Property Council of Australia, moderator Ben Hughes, and fellow panelists David Chandler AM, Tiffany Emmett and Dale Connor for an insightful discussion.

Our Head of Property, Zoran Trimcevski joined and MaxCap at PBSA Summit to discuss 570 Little Bourke, our landmark purpose-built student accommodation project.

The conversation focused on what it takes to bring complex PBSA projects to life in today's market.

Zoran shared how 570 Little Bourke was made possible through our considered ‘wrap risk’ delivery approach that provides greater certainty around fixed time, cost and construction risk.

Combined with our integrated builder-developer model, self-performing capability and disciplined approach to project delivery, it offers a blueprint for unlocking future housing projects.

The discussion also explored our ambition to reduce construction costs through innovation, including investing in advanced manufacturing and our 'kit of parts' approach that streamlines construction onsite.

Together, these initiatives are helping to create greater certainty, improve productivity and support more affordable housing outcomes.

Thanks to Leon Della Bosca, Tomas Johnsson and Simon Hulett for a great discussion.

Prefabrication is in our DNA. So when we were asked to install a 54-metre link bridge, connecting a live data centre to one still under construction, building it modular and entirely off-site was the obvious Hickory answer.
