The MY80 tower includes a unique undulating street-facing façade that rises sharply into the Melbourne skyline. Beyond its signature creased exterior the MY80 residential tower provides a contemporary, urban vertical lifestyle close to Melbourne’s CBD. For the project Big River supplied premium Armourform F27, Australia’s strongest formply, which was perfect for the project due to its carefully designed characteristics. The Armourform F27 was used in the construction of the building’s core, with its superior spanning capabilities and ability for reuse being a big benefit across MY80’s numerous floors.
