We advised Hassell Studio, Mirvac Construction and Ernst & Young on the installation of a 3.6m tree on the 35th floor of 200 George Street Sydney.
Situation
- As the major tenant of 200 George Street, Sydney, Ernst & Young required a feature tree to be located on the 35th
- As the building was still under construction this allowed a long lead time to secure and acclimatise the tree.
Outcome Required
- Ernst & Young expected the successful installation of a 3.6m evergreen tree.
- The tree to thrive and grow over the longer term (10 – 15 years)
