Star Casino Brisbane Construction
Excavation work at the site of the Queen’s Wharf resort nears completion, the actual construction phase is slated to begin in late 2019
An independent panel last year rejected The Star's $530 million plan for a 237-metre tall casino tower, after the Planning Department had recommended the project for refusal. The Independent Planning Commission knocked back The Star's proposal for a 66-storey tower last year.
The winning bidder for the construction of the A$3.6 billion Queen’s Wharf luxury integrated resort in Brisbane will be announced within weeks, news outlet the Sydney Morning Herald reports.
Lindores Construction Logistics – “The Darling” Star Casino LCL, working alongside Probuild, has recently finished works on site, to complete the development of the new 6 star hotel tower on the Gold Coast. Geoff has more than 20 years of operational casino experience at a senior executive level. He was appointed to his current position on 1 July 2020. Prior to this, Geoff had group-wide responsibility for operations at The Star Sydney, The Star Gold Coast, the Gold Coast Convention & Exhibition Centre and Treasury Brisbane. A new world-class integrated resort development that will put Brisbane on the map as a tourism, leisure and entertainment destination. Queen’s Wharf Brisbane will be a unique and vibrant new world city development attracting visitors and investment, reconnecting the activity of the Brisbane city centre to the river, preserving and celebrating Brisbane’s heritage, and delivering high. Star toasts 35 years on the Gold Coast. The Star Gold Coast celebrated a milestone this week, its 35th anniversary since opening on November 23, 1985. Originally called The Conrad Jupiters Casino and Resort, the establishment was renamed Jupiters Casino in 2010 before changing to The Star Gold Coast in 2017.
Geoff Hogg, Managing Director Queensland for Australian casino operator The Star Entertainment Group, said today that “somewhere in the next four to six weeks” they will announce the successful tender that “will start building the main core and shell of the Queen’s Wharf development.”
The Star is the leading partner in Destination Brisbane Consortium that was selected back in 2016 as the winning bidder for the development and operation of an integrated resort in Brisbane’s Central Business District. The company won the race over its biggest archrival Crown Resorts.
Mr. Hogg went on to explain that the soon-to-be-announced winning tender will be tasked with the “core concrete and […] shell” of the resort. Tenders for internal fit-outs will follow at a later stage. Announcing the winning tender for the primary construction work will mark an important milestone and the shift from excavation toward the start of construction, Mr. Hogg said today.
Excavation work began early in 2017. Mr. Hogg explained today that phase is now almost complete. Workers have so far demolished a number of government-owned buildings to prepare the site for setting the foundations.
Mr. Hogg explained that they expect to reach an important milestone in mid-2019 when all 450,000 cubic meters of soil and rock would be taken out and the hole in the ground would be finished. Foundation work is slated to begin shortly afterwards. Actual construction work is likely to commence by Christmas.
They expect to be ready to begin ground level work by mid-2020. The luxury resort will feature a massive underground car park.

The Star targets 2022 opening of a major part of its property.
The launch will include three hotels, one operating under The Star brand, as well as Dorsett-branded and Rosewood-branded hotels, food and beverage facilities, public spaces at the flagship Sky Deck, The Landing, and Waterline, and retail spaces.
The gaming and hospitality giant currently runs Brisbane’s Treasury Casino. That facility will be closed when the main resort is finished and The Star will relocate its license to a larger casino at its Queen’s Wharf resort. As for its old gaming operation, it will be transformed into a retail centre.
