The tower form at 111 Castlereagh Street is in progress, suspended above the 1930s heritage Art Deco form below.
The new architectural tower form is conceived as a suspended object, floating in space as a light, curvilinear object that contrasts and compliments the heritage building below. Visually the new form appears to bear no load on the heritage building it floats above but opens it to natural daylight through a newly created central atrium directly below the suspended form.
111 Castlereagh Street awaits to engage a thriving community, integrating the multiple uses of a luxury retail precinct, a unique and innovative workplace and contemporary living while creating a landmark building combined with the adaptive reuse of a significant historic Sydney building.
