Australia 108 Tower in the Works For Melbourne


Australia 108 Tower in the Works For Melbourne

According to Nonda Katsalidis of architectural firm Fender Katsalidis, Melbourne’s soon-to-be-developed Australia 108 on Southbank – which is expected to become the tallest building in the southern hemisphere – will also have the shortest construction time when compared to similar skyscrapers.

His building is already difficult to avoid. Anyone walking along the Yarra River can only be impressed by the Eureka Tower which dominates Southbank. Eureka Tower, built by Melbourne architect Nonda Katsalidis (Architecture Cabinet Fender Katsalidis), is already the highest building in the Southern Hemisphere, cumulating at 300 metres since 2006. However, a new skyscraper from the same architect could by 2017 dwarf the Eureka Tower. 

The 388m structure will feature 600 apartments, a two-storey lobby on the 83rd and 84th floor boasting bars and restaurants, and a 228-room hotel with a sky-deck on top have been added to the initial proposal. It will be built just next to the Eureka on Southbank.
