Taylor completed the first stage of a major redevelopment at Merrylands RSL. The project involved shoring piles, bulk excavation and construction of two new basement levels, construction of indoor and alfresco bar and gaming areas, a new reception entry lobby and atrium area together with associated external works including car drop off points, structural steel covered links and memorial pools.
The extension was constructed around a heritage building, the previous Merrylands Baby Health Centre established in 1947, which was also refurbished by Taylor. The refurbishment allows for the reuse of this heritage listed building as future function or memorabilia space.
The Taylor team adopted a careful consultation and open forum meeting agenda where issues and points were discussed openly with stakeholders. Taylor had daily communication with the Club’s Building Manager where required to ensure expectations were met.
