Ramping Up: Proxima Construction Update October 2023

The construction site is buzzing with excitement as significant milestones are reached. The tower crane has been gracefully lowered, the roof securely in place, and the interior of each meticulously crafted apartment is coming to life.

"We're on track for completion April next year" says Vanessa, Proxima's director. Hands-on and overseeing every detail of the build, she has 100% confidence in the Kalmar Construction team.  "The progress is phenomenal and there's a collective focus on coordinating the fit-out of each apartment."

The construction team has made strides this month, with work starting on the entry ramp, lift installations underway, and kitchen installations progressing on level 3. GIB stopping has been completed up to level 5.

"We engage with local suppliers and support local businesses whenever possible, almost all our subcontractors are Auckland based. Our wonderful local joiner has started work on the kitchens on level 3 and 4. They are accustomed to fitting out hotels and high end apartments so the attention to detail really shows. It's also exciting to see the install of Blum hardware in our kitchens, they just feel different from your stock standard runners and hinges."

Conveniently located close to the city centre, Ponsonby, Mt Eden and Kingsland, Proxima Residences offers a living experience that is truly unmatched. The building is surrounded by stunning views and is only minutes away from some of Auckland's best restaurants, shopping centres, and entertainment hubs.

Stay tuned for more updates as the award winning team at Proxima continues its journey towards completion.
