Two of Melbourne’s wealthiest businessmen are at war, with billionaire investor Alex Waislitz accusing property developer Tim Gurner of attempting to cover up the poor construction of a luxury St Kilda tower.

Mr Gurner began marketing the Saint Moritz development in 2019, with the building boasting a 25-metre indoor pool, bar, library, cinema and private working spaces known as Chairman’s Lounges. The spa, according to marketing material, includes a floatation pod and a cryogenic chamber.
