McQuoin Park was designed to provide the older community of Sydney’s Upper North Shore a calm, supportive place to live, with modern comforts, thoughtful design and easy access to care. Catholic Healthcare’s vision was a home that feels welcoming from the moment you arrive – light-filled rooms, warm communal areas, peaceful gardens and a sense of dignity and independence for every resident.

Delivered beside an operating aged care home and surrounded by neighbouring facilities, the project required disciplined planning and respectful communication to minimise disruption. Works involved connecting into live services, managing resident movements, extensive community consultation and maintaining safety on a main arterial road. A major component of the project was the construction of the Pacific Highway slip lane, which required detailed coordination with road authorities, staged night works and strict traffic controls. These activities were sequenced to keep the network moving safely while maintaining predictable access to the site. The team-controlled noise, managed access and coordinated closely with Catholic Healthcare’s staff to ensure day‑to‑day operations continued safely.
