Simcore's Sustainable Upgrade at Broadway on Ann, Brisbane

CURRENT PROJECT

At Simcore, we believe the future isn’t only built from the ground up — it’s also built on the smart transformation of what already stands.
 
Our current project at Broadway on Ann, a landmark 15-storey residential complex in the heart of Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley, exemplifies this philosophy.
Through a specialised retrofitting and maintenance strategy, we’re elevating the performance, resilience, and sustainability of an established structure using one of the most advanced waterproofing solutions available today: the GAF EverGuard® Extreme TPO System.

About Broadway on Ann

  • Located just 1.5 kilometres from the Brisbane CBD, Broadway on Ann is a 15-storey mixed-use residential development comprising:
  • 247 one- and two-bedroom apartments.
  • Basement parking facilities for residents.
  • 600 sqm of ground-floor retail accommodation.
  • A rooftop terrace with BBQ area, feature glass gable pool, and gym.
  • Secure storage areas on each floor for bicycles and personal items.
  • A dynamic façade featuring a diverse mix of coloured precast Alpolic panels and coloured glazing.
Designed for urban living, Broadway on Ann represents the growing need for modern, sustainable city spaces — and Simcore is proud to help bring this vision
to its next chapter.

Simcore’s Retrofitting and Maintenance Strategy

The retrofitting and maintenance programme at Broadway on Ann focuses on sustainability, durability, and performance enhancement through:
Advanced Waterproofing Solutions
  • Installation of the GAF EverGuard® Extreme TPO Roofing System, known for its exceptional weather resistance, superior UV protection, and long-term performance.
  • Improved roof waterproofing to extend lifespan, minimise maintenance needs, and enhance energy efficiency.
Structural and Asset Protection
  • Reinforcement of key building components to withstand environmental challenges, ensuring ongoing safety and operational efficiency.
  • Application of high-performance sealants and adhesive systems provided by Simseal, optimising the building’s resilience against water ingress and material degradation.
Sustainability Integration
  • Upgrades designed to reduce energy loss, lower operational costs, and contribute towards Australia’s net zero emissions targets by 2050.
  • Enhanced building envelope performance, improving insulation and interior comfort levels.

Why It Matters for the Future of Construction

Projects like Broadway on Ann demonstrate that retrofitting is not just maintenance, it’s innovation.
By using world-class materials and future-focused construction practices, Simcore is helping reshape the way Australia approaches urban development: smarter upgrades, greater sustainability, and better outcomes for communities.
 
As urban spaces age, retrofitting will become an essential part of Australia’s construction evolution, offering economic, environmental, and social benefits that extend far beyond individual buildings.
 
Simcore is proud to lead this movement, one project at a time. 

Looking Ahead

Broadway on Ann is just the beginning.
As Simcore continues to expand its retrofitting, renovation, and sustainable construction services across Australia, we remain committed to building on vision — transforming existing assets into future-proof, high-performance spaces for generations to come.
