Part of this purchase required Kennards to build the infrastructure such as roads, drainage and other services. That infrastructure work is now complete enabling us to start construction of the storage centre. Progress to date includes the concrete driveways and the framing and roofing for the stage 1 buildings. The total development will include 5 two storey buildings. Stage 1 will include the two buildings fronting Castlereagh Rd and will have 400 units with plenty of open spaces – some with shade sail cover. With the new team chosen – Nick Bachtis and Lee Porcelli – we are gearing up to open January 2011.
