Similar work happening here at 140 St Georges Tce.

From the building management:
The new facility will offer 9 showers in the men’s locker room and 5 showers in the women’s locker room. Each facility will have 2 ironing stations and 3 sinks. There will be 104 lockers in the new men’s locker room, 50 lockers in the new women’s locker room and a drying room in each locker room. The women’s locker room will also feature a make-up bench and 2 hair dryers. We will be adding 112 bike storage racks and a pit stop area for maintenance. A designated cycle path will be added to improve safety when entering and exiting the new facility.

I couldn't help but snicker about a happy ending to your trip - "a touch of class" was the name of an infamous house of ill repute in Sydney.

I'm trying to find a building I can rent a locker/use showers at - my building is old and doesn't have any.
Preferably not too far from cnr Pier/Hay street? Anyone know a building with facilities this end of town worth asking?
Not fussed about bike storage - I can store that at my office.

St Martins Tower (on London Court) is also having end of trip facilities installed soon on their ground floor. In total; 10 toilets, 5 urinals, 10 basins, 20 showers, about 300 lockers, drying rooms, hair dryers & ironing boards. Plus a gymnasium and fitness centre next door. They already have bike storage below ground.

Mixitup, contact these buildings management and at least express your interest, they may be open to external rentals.

Amazing to hear so many EOT facilities being installed, boon!

Im working from a client site at the moment (large company). They have swipe lock bike cage, lockers, showers, towels provided (hotel linen style), body wash in showers, ironing facilities, and hair dryers. Oh and the bike cage has 2 communal pumps :-)

Have you tried at the Perth train station?

Can that. $10 for a shower and $10 for a locker! :shock:

It would be cheaper to join a gym.

Yep--- I've been stalking buildings to see which building have facilities and trying to contact the property managers. I must look like a right weirdo.

Most either can't seem to be bothered or have a rule against external access. I'll keep trying... but if someone knows where there is a precedent it will help. Otherwise I'll probably be looking at gym membership - I have a strong dislike of gym's so trying to avoid that (not to mention wasted money for gym facilities I won't use).
