The University of Melbourne announces this week it will launch Melbourne Connect, “a major new purpose-built innovation precinct.”

Um, isn’t that the project being built with Lendlease on the former Royal Womens Hospital site that the university announced last November (CMM November 21 2017)?.

That’s the one. With construction not complete to 2020 presumably there are two more annual announcements to come Understandably so, with a reported cost of $500m the partners will want to announce to get the cost per announcement to at least $125m.
