MSA’s director Matt Shuter was involved earlier in his career as a Building Approvals Officer for the Sydney Olympic Games venues which included Stadium Australia (now Accor Stadium), the Superdome (now Qudos Bank Arena), Sydney International Regatta Centre as well as the various temporary and event approvals for these games.

Although now over 20 years on, the lessons learnt from this enormous build still provide incredible insight as to the risks and challenges that are faced on mega stadiums and entertainment venues which included extensive Fire Engineering and consultation with the NSW Fire Brigades to create these legacy venues.

Greenwich Baths is a popular waterfront destination situated along Sydney Harbour and offers scenic views of the harbour, landmarks, and surrounding greenery. The baths underwent significant alterations and additions to the clubhouse building including the caretaker’s residence on the first floors, and male and female change-room facility on the lower level.

The role of MSA was to provide BCA Certification under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act including the review of various BCA Performance Solutions to meet accessibility compliance within the existing heritage constraints of the building.

The project involved new change rooms, corporate box facilities, amenities and media room building as well as a new grandstand extension building to the north east which included 1400 new undercover seats, new toilets, catering and bar facilities and a function / community room.

The role of MSA was to provide BCA and DDA consulting advice directly to Warringah Council to assist in protecting their interests / assets and ensuring compliant outcomes were achieved by the delivery teams.
