SA Water House was named the Development of the Year at the Property Council’s annual Rider Levett Bucknall Innovation and Excellence Awards on Thursday 10 June 2010.

The 6 Star Green Star rated building located on Victoria Square in Adelaide is a landmark sustainable workplace that achieves significant energy and water efficiencies and provides a healthy, collaborative working environment.

In announcing the award, Property Council SA Executive Director Nathan Paine said: "To SA Water, Hassell Architects, Hansen Yuncken and the Catholic Church as owner, this award is testament to commitment and a vision that survived the counter pressures of economic expediency to create a true long-term asset the whole state can enjoy and call their own".
