Brisbane Square

Brisbane Square is an ultramodern office building in downtown Brisbane, rising 38 stories and 151 meters (495 feet) into the sky. Completed in 2006 and designed by the architects Denton Corker Marshall, it houses retail space and a large parking garage on its lower floors. Its main tenants include the Brisbane City Council, which occupies levels one through twenty-two, and the Australian Retirement Trust. Of particular note is the public library, which is open to visitors on the ground floor. The building holds a Five Star Green Star certification and stands on a central corner, overlooking the historic Treasury Building and the new Brisbane Quarter development.
