Birch Tower
Building summary
A brand new luxury high rise apartment complex with all the amenities... at least that’s what the developer promised.
Building conflict
The developers (Stephen) advertised the building with full gym, pool, facilities etc. but didn’t mention that it was a guide only. Without renting out the retail space at the bottom of the building there’s no way to pay for it, they can’t even afford to fill the pool! Residents are pretty demanding of perfection as they’re used to the finer things in life!
Building objective
Work to make the building a profitable investment and use the proceeds to better the community.
Resident demographic
Upper income professionals.
Design Style
Super modern luxury, marble, glass, soft close cabinets, the works.
History and Trivia
Birch Tower was marketed as the start of a new luxury precinct in Garland’s CBD.
The CBD had been struggling as a bit of a cultural wasteland so this was set to bring more of a lively air to the area.
