During his time at RCP, John has managed the delivery of several complex projects across a diverse range of sectors, with a recent project being the completion of the $200m David Jones Elizabeth Street Store redevelopment in Sydney’s CBD. The project included the integration of the David Jones Market Street store into the Elizabeth Street store, bringing the 93 year old building up to current code, whilst maintaining the rich history and heritage of the building.
John was instrumental in ensuring the successful completion of the redevelopment. Throughout construction, John worked closely with the client and builder to overcome many latent conditions and structural challenges, ensuring not a single day of trade was lost throughout the course of the project. Construction completion was achieved in April 2020, with the redevelopment setting a new benchmark for department stores in the southern hemisphere.
