Grocon

Grocon

Grocon Pty Ltd is a large Australian construction company based in Melbourne, Australia. It is owned by the Grollo family.

Grocon grew from a small family concreting business established by Luigi Grollo in the 1950s, to a major building company in the 1980s with his son Bruno Grollo, to today being Australia's leading privately owned development and construction group, headed by Bruno's son Daniel Grollo.

The company has been involved in many landmark towers in Melbourne and Sydney, with a number of projects currently being built in Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

Completed Projects

In Melbourne, completed projects include 101 Collins Street, 120 Collins Street, Crown Casino and Entertainment Complex, ANZ World Headquarters, Rialto Towers and the 300 m Eureka Tower. Grocon developed a $600 million "urban village" in the Melbourne precinct known as Queen Victoria Village.

In Sydney, completed projects include Horizon Apartments, The Peak Apartments, World Tower and Governor Phillip Tower.

Current Projects

Grocon is working on Media House in Victoria as well as Melbourne Rectangular Stadium and CUB 4, part of Carlton Brewery, Swanson Street redevelopment; which is proposed to be over 300 m tall and the tallest building in Melbourne and possibly Australia and the Southern Hemisphere.

In New South Wales, Civic Place in Parramatta, 413 George Street, 157 Liverpool Street and 1 Bligh Street are all under construction.

In Queensland, Grocon is building The Oracle at Broadbeach, Soul, just to the north at Surfers Paradise and Vision Brisbane, which will be the tallest buidling in Brisbane.cite web |url=http://www.goldcoast.com.au/article/2008/08/13/14912_gold-coast-business.html |title=Juniper starts to put Soul into Surfers |accessdate=2008-09-03 |date=2008-08-13 |work= |publisher=Gold Coast Publications ]
