Meanwhile, the PwC Centre in Wellington was awarded the Supreme Commercial Project of the Year.
The two-year construction programme was built on reclaimed land and included an underground basement that was below the water line and susceptible to significant tidal movements.
Judges said the PwC Centre was an impressive build as the design pushed the structural engineering envelope in New Zealand.
As well as the Supreme Award, the building also took out the category win for the Carters Commercial Project Award, and the Value Award for a project over $15 million.
Registered Master Builders chief executive David Kelly said the awards showcase and celebrate the very best in commercial construction.
Kelly said the high calibre of entries reflect the scale and diversity of commercial construction throughout New Zealand.
"These awards recognise the contribution of the whole project team rather than just the building itself," he said.
"This includes everyone from the building owners, architects, designers, engineers, quantity surveyors through to the contractors themselves. This collaboration is a key part of these awards and is a key focus for the sector."
A new Innovation Award recognising the transformation happening in the industry was announced this year.
"Technology and new approaches are making the impossible possible and are shaping the future of the industry," Kelly said.
In the last seven years, The Commercial Project Awards have celebrated the best quality commercial builds, with Whangarei, Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin and Queenstown taking out the Supreme Award.
The awards are made possible thanks to the support of Allied Concrete, Altus, CARTERS, Construction Marketing Services, GIB, PlaceMakers and Resene.
