Completed in 2000 and designed by Crone and Associates, this 41-floor office tower reaches 243 metres and ranks fifth-tallest in Sydney when measured to its spire. The real draw for a passing traveler is practical: the underground retail arcade running beneath the building connects Town Hall station directly to the Queen Victoria Building, making it a useful covered route through the city centre.
What to look for
- The spire — the reason this tower ranks fifth in Sydney's skyline rather than lower
- The Galeries, four levels of commercial space at the base of the tower
- The underground arcade linking Town Hall station to the Queen Victoria Building
Access from Park Street at ground level, or enter the underground arcade directly from Town Hall station.
