Big congratulations to Mirvac and the LIV Albert team on winning Development of the Year for Build-to-Rent and PBSA at this year's Urban Developer Awards.

It's a great result for a project that's brought close to 500 new rental homes to a once overlooked site in Brunswick, with sustainability credentials to match. LIV Albert is targeting a 5 Star Green Star rating and a NatHERS average of 8.2 stars, backed by 99.5 kW of rooftop solar, all part of the ESD scope Ark Resources delivered on the project.

Congratulations to Fieldwork Architecture and everyone across the project team. We were proud to support the ESD work here, and glad to see the judging panel single out LIV Albert's resident amenity and its connection to the surrounding parkland.
