Paragon tops out
By Giulia Raneri
Melbourne Developer Beulah International is a step closer to completion of its $200 million CBD tower, Paragon, on the corner of Queen and Latrobe streets after it “topped out” last month.
In what has been a turbulent year for the developer, builder Multiplex continues to forge ahead under Melbourne’s current stage four restrictions with the building scheduled to be completed later this year.
The 48-storey tower also includes a total of 227 apartments, shared amenities including flexible space for exercise and wellness, a movie theatre, and a private dining space.
Beulah managing director Jiaheng Chan said, “the topping out of Paragon signals a much greater achievement than just reaching its full height – it has kept workers employed through months of uncertainty.” •
