Merchant House Wins MBA NSW Excellence in Construction Award
By Addenbrooke
We’re proud to announce that Merchant House has been awarded the Master Builders Association (MBA) NSW Excellence in Construction Award for projects valued between $100–$150 million.
This recognition celebrates not only the exceptional quality of construction but also the collaboration, innovation, and craftsmanship that defined every stage of the project. Delivered in partnership with FDC Construction & Fitout, Merchant House stands as a benchmark for adaptive reuse and design-led commercial redevelopment in Sydney’s CBD.
Representatives from Addenbrooke, Phoenix Property Investors, Glory Star, and FDC Construction & Fitout celebrating Merchant House’s win at the 2025 Master Builders Association NSW Excellence in Construction Awards.
Originally a heritage warehouse, the project was meticulously reimagined into a contemporary workspace that retains its historic character while embracing cutting-edge sustainability and functionality. The result is a seamless integration of old and new — a hallmark of Addenbrooke’s development ethos.
Addenbrooke extends its congratulations and thanks to the entire project team, consultants, and delivery partners who brought this vision to life. In particular, our thanks go to FDC Construction & Fitout for their outstanding commitment to quality and collaboration throughout the build process.
Merchant House continues to reflect Addenbrooke’s commitment to creating legacy projects that combine architectural integrity, operational excellence, and enduring value for the city.
Congratulations to all involved on this remarkable achievement.
