The setbacks and different facades make it a bit interesting.

The setbacks give it a great look, especially for a part of town indudated with boxy scrapers and also has a New York feel to it. The setbacks were done to prevent the tower breaching the sun access plane over the Pitt St mall

6/10...I don't like the setbacks at all, I do like the facade though. Up close it doesn't look all that bad.

Darn those sun-access planes :bash:

Wish it were taller, and the base is fantastic, building was built around a small corner shop (Darrell Lea chocolates, a Sydney institution) and also contains Sydney Arcade a soaring curved arcade going to Pitt St Mall.

More pics @ 400 George Street (http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=108338) <--- Previously know as Bankers Trust Tower.

^^ BTW Make sure to click onto "Click here to see more files"

@ 138m = 453ft above ground. A reasonable Sydney mid-riser.

8.5 from me.

Also contains Sydney Arcade a soaring curved arcade going to Pitt St Mall.Here is a link to show the soaring Sydney Arcade leading from Pitt Street Mall through to King Street & vice-versa: Sydney Arcade (http://www.emporis.com/en/il/im/?id=282854)

BTW The above 4-level soaring arcade is wonderfully heated during Sydney's coldest months especially from about late June contintuing through to early-mid September. It is also kind of retro art-deco on closer examination.
