In his report, the President of the Hellenic Club Andrew Satsias said the Club continues to trade well and has circumvented many challenges during uncertain economic times.

The Hellenic Club of Canberra recently received approval for a $146 million redevelopment of its site at Woden.

The precinct includes a 12-storey hotel with 151 rooms, complete with restaurants and a bar on the ground level, an indoor recreation facility on level one and an auditorium on levels two and three. There are also plans for a 16-storey office block.

Mr Satsias told attendees at the AGM that since the Club’s three development applications (DAs) were approved by the ACT’s planning authority, they are now hoping to appoint a construction company to build the first stage of the Hellenic Precinct, which includes a multi-level underground carpark with ancillary facilities.

On the day, the newly elected unopposed Board of Directors for 2023/2024 were also confirmed. They are:

  • President: Andrew Satsias.
  • Vice Presidents: Jim Andriopoulos and Angelo Konstantinou
  • Treasurer: Vicki Sofatzis
  • Directors: Steve Kartsonas, James Koundouris, John Loukadellis, Eleni Notaras, and Stef Pashalidis.
