Join us as we take a deep dive technical tour of City of Darwin’s Casuarina Aquatics and Leisure Centre on Thursday 30 July 2.30pm – 5.00pm.
This $26.8million project, completed in July 2024, transformed the facility in Darwin’s northern suburbs from a traditional 1970s style outdoor pool with limited accessibility, functionality and sustainability, into a modern, inclusive, family-friendly community hub, unique within the NT.
Hear from the City of Darwin,, AILA and those involved in the project, to understand the challenges, wins, and lessons learnt during the journey, and meet the facility operators to discuss how the site functions day-to-day.
Insights will include:
- Addressing sustainability and climate resilience in the design and construction process
- The “tree puzzle” of balancing the retention of trees with new plantings
- Creating more accessible aquatic facilities
Save the date, time, and keep an hour or two afterwards, for optional networking drinks. Check back as more details are coming soon!
