It is your responsibility to ensure by independent verification that all information is correct before placing any reliance on it. GEOFF HUTCHISON It’s part of building site folklore that the Grollo brothers managed to get the Rialto Tower in… Melbourne, built on time because they provided beer and strippers on Fridays. Well now the biggest privately owned construction company in Australia is turning its gaze west. Daniel Grollo joins us from Melbourne. (greetings not transcribed) Daniel can you tell me is that Rialto story true? DANIEL GROLLO No, it’s not true there’s lots of myths around Rialto. It was a great iconic project that we done… back in the early ‘80s here in Melbourne, but that one’s not true. GEOFF HUTCHISON That wasn’t true. Now your family has always been seen as a… very colourful one, and I… it’s was begun by your grandfather, wasn’t it, some sixty years ago? DANIEL GROLLO Yes, my grandfather was an immigrant from Italy and… in the ‘50s he started a small pavement company and my father joined that company in the… sort of… ‘60s and really took it from there up into one of the biggest builders and developers in the country. GEOFF HUTCHISON – 2 – Now does your father adhere to the idea that the first generation makes it, the second grows it and third one loses it?
