Children name the two cranes at Concord
The two large cranes on the Concord Hospital Redevelopment site now have names thanks to two local children. Concord Public school student Iris Doh, aged 12, was thrilled to see her name lifted into the air by the crane after putting great thought into her entry. “I chose Saso because it stands for stay strong, and I named it Stay Strong to motivate cancer patients,” she said.
Concord Hospital marks a milestone
The Concord Hospital Redevelopment has reached an important milestone, with construction of the eight-storey clinical services building reaching its highest point. Health Minister Brad Hazzard and Member for Drummoyne John Sidoti visited the site along with Sydney Local Health District and Health Infrastructure project executives for a traditional topping out ceremony.
Redevelopment hits milestone with first Concrete Pour
In a major boost for the Redevelopment, the first concrete slab was poured in October. The basement level pour quickly covered the site area near the old tennis court area. Some 425.9 cubic metres was poured during the week but this is only a small part of the total 18,950 cubic metres that will be required before the project is completed.
