Cove Apartments
Sydney, Australia

HEIGHT: 158m
FLOORS: 46 floors
COMPLETION: ?
ARCHITECT: Harry Seidler

Cove Apartments in Sydney's The Rocks is virtually complete after four years of construction which included a restoration of buildings on site. The tower itself was really built over the past year or so and has risen rapidly ever since.

The tower was designed by none other than Harry Seidler and rises 46 floors above the street to a height to 158 metres making it Sydney's fourth tallest residential tower.

Raise your glasses in a toast to Sydney's newest skyscraper

So what rating shall you give for this scraper? Impressed by the design or not?

Impressive design by Seidler. He took full advantage of the small site he had and was able to produce in the end. 8/10

Very good and clean for a residential, and love the silver balconies against the creamy coloured walls in between. Typical Seidler shapes involved, but very nice.
