Mast removed from the Australian Centre of Democracy.
Works are continuing on the $6m redevelopment of the Australian Centre of Democracy (formerly known as the "Eureka Centre") where an extension to the facility will provide enhanced exhibition and interpretation space.
Nicholson Construction recently removed the 54m mast from the existing building. The demanding task required the use of a 300 Tonne crane with a pair separate support cranes assisting the process. This event marks a new stage of works on the centre with the mast set to be replaced so the Eureka flag can once again be viewed across the city.
