Only eight months into its construction, the Blue Mountains Cultural Centre is rapidly taking shape.

Richard Crookes Constructions has started work on the centre's podium level on which the cultural facilities are to be built.

Completion of the complex, which includes a new Coles supermarket, is expected in 2012.
