Australian War Memorial Eastern Precinct represents an uncompromising level of quality design, honouring the express wishes of veterans as the final stage of the national memorial in Canberra. 
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Eastern Precinct is the final phase of the overall site plan for the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, ACT. Delivered for the Australian War Memorial authority, the $14M development was designed by JPW and built by PBS Building, completing in 2011. The precinct comprises underground parking, a café, and a public courtyard, with a formal geometry that remains consistent with the surrounding heritage context, linking the old and the new.
