Marrickville Community Hub
Client:
Mirvac Construction
Location:
Marrickville NSW
Scope:
The New Marrickville Community Hub and former Marrickville Hospital site provides Marrickville Town Centre with a vibrant new Civic focus. It’s a dynamic integration of new and re-used historic buildings along with a new ‘terraced garden’ that acts as a public square providing a unique feature to the precinct and merges the boundary of internal and external space.
The development consists of a new 2,500m2 state of the art library facility constructed around the repurposed "Marrickville Hospital" housing reading rooms, collection spaces and workspaces for library staff. The building uses a high-tech natural ventilation system, a combination of FSC and recycled timber and many other environmentally sustainable processes to deliver an exceptional facility for the local and broader community.
