This will be the tenth building that Concor has successfully undertaken within the precinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new development will comprise two distinct office wings set atop four parking levels \u2013 two below ground and two above \u2013 with a shared parking area for office tenants and visitors. Built on a triangular site, the project presents some challenges including a constrained footprint and a tight construction timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-03.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"709\" height=\"945\" data-id=\"10361\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10361\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-03.jpg 709w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-03-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhile the structure itself is relatively straightforward, the limited laydown area and proximity to existing residential and commercial properties require meticulous planning and execution. We have worked closely with the local residents\u2019 association, facilitated through Intaprop, to ensure clear communication and minimal disruption,\u201d Warren Mills, Contract Manager at Concor, says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The west wing of the building will cover 3,247 m\u00b2 of Gross Lettable Area (GLA) over three floors (ground, first and second), while the east wing will provide 4,602 m\u00b2 of GLA across four floors (ground, first, second and third).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both wings will have their own entrance and atrium, accessible from the road, and will be joined by a raised outdoor courtyard above street level, creating architectural interest. The parking area encompasses some 1,203 m<sup>2<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In keeping with the aesthetic of the Oxford Parks Precinct, 3 Parks Boulevard will feature a unitised fa\u00e7ade system on the northern fa\u00e7ade to accelerate construction timelines. The southern and western fa\u00e7ades will combine brickwork with strip windows, giving the structure a distinctive look while aligning with the broader precinct design language. Although the design features of both towers will be similar, each will boast a unique colour scheme to further differentiate them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1299\" height=\"974\" data-id=\"10360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-02.jpg 1299w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-02-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-02-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-02-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1299px) 100vw, 1299px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1299\" height=\"974\" data-id=\"10359\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-01.jpg 1299w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-01-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-01-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/3-PARKS-PIC-01-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1299px) 100vw, 1299px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mills explains that managing material deliveries is critical on such a confined site. \u201cWe secured a wayleave to use the roadway on the northern side of the site for deliveries, and in some cases, for limited material storage. Daily planning and weekly scheduling with suppliers and subcontractors are essential to keeping the project on track.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Construction activities commenced in mid-April 2025, and completion is scheduled for May 2026. A single tower crane will service the entire site, with tight coordination required to maintain progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aligned with Intaprop and Concor\u2019s commitment to sustainable construction practices, the project targets a Five Green Star rating. Green initiatives include the installation of a Building Management System (BMS), solar energy generation, waste management and recycling programmes, water storage, energy-efficient HVAC and lighting systems and the sourcing of local materials within a defined delivery radius. AfriSam\u2019s Green Star Mix concrete will be used to support these sustainability goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Concor\u2019s emphasis on socio-economic development is evident in the extensive use of Small, Medium and Micro Enterprises (SMMEs) for key trades such as brickwork, plastering, painting, steel fixing and earthworks. Many of these contractors have been mentored on previous Concor projects, ensuring a high standard of workmanship and tight adherence to project deadlines. The company continues to phase in new SMMEs on each project, providing critical development support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of its corporate social investment (CSI) initiatives, Concor maintains its longstanding support for the Bramley Children\u2019s Home and recently assisted a dog rescue centre by donating building materials for the construction of kennels and a dam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are proud to once again be part of the continued growth of the Oxford Parks Precinct and are committed to delivering a high quality sustainable building while supporting local communities and enterprises,\u201d Mills concludes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leading construction specialist Concor secured the contract to construct 3 Parks Boulevard for prominent property developer Intaprop in the prestigious Oxford Parks Precinct, marking the latest addition to this thriving development node.
