Overview

Edge 28 is a bold, 13-storey mixed-use project located in the heart of St Leonards, containing a commercial podium and ground-floor retail, beneath an eight-storey residential tower of 48 apartments. The building includes three levels of basement parking and a landscaped rooftop terrace. Delivered under a Design & Construct agreement, Novati implemented concrete core structure and a façade clad in Equiton fibre cement panels, Diversaclad, and corten steel detailing. Constructed on a constrained 730 m² site, the team executed intensive logistics planning to manage deliveries, trades, and operations with up to 145 onsite workers at peak periods.
