The 18-storey project is centred around a reimagining of the former industrial site’s heritage listed Goods Shed No.5 and distinct Malcolm Moore crane. Both have been restored and form an integral part of the new development.
Seafarers features a luxurious lobby lounge bar, world-class event venue and meeting spaces, a state-of-the-art health centre, as well as food and beverage offerings. The precinct also encompasses a 3,500sqm public park known as Seafarers Rest.
To attract residents and visitors seeking a luxury lifestyle and sustainable design, the entire precinct is committed to green building practices and urban renewal, while honouring the site’s heritage, environment and community.
