Australian Unity's Fund manager receiving the Best Sustainable Development award.

Last Thursday evening, members of Australian Unity’s Healthcare Property team attended the Property Council of Australia’s Innovation and Excellence Awards. Managed by the Property Council of Australia, the Innovation & Excellence Awards is the most prestigious property awards programs in Australia.

Delivered in partnership with Rider Levett Bucknall, the Awards have been promoting excellence in design and innovation in the built environment since 1982.

Through the program the Property Council of Australia aims to showcase superior examples of iconic projects in property development and investment across a range of sectors and design disciplines.

The STARS public hospital at Herston Quarter was a finalist in the Best Sustainable Development category.

Although the team didn’t win this time, everyone enjoyed the evening, which celebrated Australia’s most sustainable developments.

STARS is the first hospital in Australia to achieve a 5-star Greenstar performance rating. It continues to receive recognition for its excellence in energy usage, water management, materials, emissions, and land use and ecology.

Congratulations team.
