In a first for Melbourne, WSP applied innovative structural engineering techniques to grow this inner city building in Melbourne to one of the tallest timber building extensions in the world. By using the latest in timber construction technology, WSP designed to use cross laminated timber (CLT) to transform the existing six-storey building by adding a 10-storey hotel.

WSP worked with Ashby Capital and Janson Urban to reuse and grow the existing structure which created larger more effective retail and office spaces while reducing carbon emissions from construction.

You might think that 111 West 57th Street is an extremely thin building. But 111 West 57th Street is undeniably slender in high-rise terms – a super-slender building certainly, and perhaps even a ‘mega-slender’ one.
