ROOF TOPPING CEREMONY AT JEWEL

Surfers Paradise

SLOWLY but surely the amazing Jewel Development on Old Burleigh Rd has been reaching slowly skyward. Finally on Thursday the ‘topping off’ ceremony was held, signifying that the upward build is complete. To mark the occasion an array of dignitaries both political and corporate were invited to celebrate with the Yuhu Group. Final completion of this city changing project is on budget and on time to finish in April 2019. A picture perfect day, white sands, shimmering sea – it was the Gold Coast to a tee.
