While it is a good thing that the gap in the skyline at this spot will finally be closed, I'm not sure whether the copper-coloured cladding will fit in with the neighbouring buildings.

1 Alfred Street which will be built to the north of 200 George has a similar colour scheme.

It turns out it is not actually copper-coloured cladding, but rather a timber slated facade with clear glazing. Kind of unique!!

Here is another render and the ground level floor plan

Sydney just cant get enough of the "curves".

Sky_Is_The_Limit · July 19th, 2012, 02:09 PM

There's quite a few curvaceous towers in the pipeline that's for sure - also some with sloping roofs

Trances · July 19th, 2012, 02:18 PM

Whats currently on the site ?

Sky_Is_The_Limit · July 19th, 2012, 02:23 PM

Not the best shot to explain with, but the small building in front of the Marriott and the building next to it (to the right of the palm trees)

Now I have always wondered why those buildings are almost exactly the same height?

No idea to be honest

Mirvac, the developer, has lodged a DA for the demolition of the existing buildings. They must have secured an anchor tenant and have to work on a tight deadline!! Rumour has it that Ernst & Young have signed and will move 8 blocks north along George Street from their current location at World Square.

Prep has commenced on this project

look a lot taller than 155m - looks ~170m. Maybe just the angle of image or sheer bulk but then again most buildings in Sydney look a lot taller than what they are. Do they sit on a relatively high RL?

Sky_Is_The_Limit · February 8th, 2013, 11:58 AM

No, this is virtually on the same block as the rest of the buildings at Circular Quay

Early February Update
