Situated on the gateway site of the University of New South Wales main campus, at the junction of the Mall and Anzac Parade, is the $123.5 million multi-award winning Tyree Energy Technologies Building (TETB) which is the home of energy research at the University of New South Wales. A custom design solution by FJMT and constructed by Brookfield Multiplex. Completed in 2012.
