PROPERTY and hospitality group Roxy-Pacific Holdings said that it has been diligent in the planning, design and construction processes for The Hensley in Potts Point, Sydney, to ensure "absolute respect of the original building features of the building, with a commitment to preserving the history of the site and maintaining the safety of its workers and the general public".
The mainboard-listed developer announced this in a Singapore Exchange filing on Wednesday in response to Australian media reports which said that the group had demolished much of the historic facade of the inner-city building without approval from the City of Sydney Council and was ordered to reinstate the wall.
