ENGINEERING EXCELLENCE AWARD

PRAHRAN SKATE PARK

The Engineering Excellence Awards recognise the outstanding achievements in project delivery, as well as exemplary people leading change in the public works engineering profession.

Prahran Skate Park and Basketball Court is an urban renewal project that successfully transformed an iconic but aged skate park with rich cultural heritage into a modern, multi-functional and world class facility. A key driver for success for this transformation was meaningful engagement with the local community and passionate stakeholder groups to ensure the redevelopment balanced cultural heritage preservation with modern design.
