Kempton Park campus
The Institute (#NATED) brick building
43 Maxwell Street. EASTECH Institute’s exterior identity is the reddish brick multi-storey with the white EASTC Technocentric Varsity board — the building Billy supplied. This site does not use The Food Court pavilion, Food Court yard, mixed yard, or the EASTECH TERRITORY welcome-sign shots as Institute identity.
