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 will form an integral part of the new development.
Seafarers will feature 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 will also encompass a 3,500sqm public park known as Seafarers Rest.
