About Premier Tower

The Premier Tower is a striking mixed-use skyscraper at the corner of Bourke Street and Spencer Street in Melbourne. The 246-meter (807-foot) building has 78 floors and houses both residences and a hotel. The architecture, designed by Elenberg Fraser, is defined by curving forms that recall the silhouette of draped fabric. A taller project was originally planned, but it was scaled back to avoid casting shadows on the Yarra River. Construction began in 2017 and the tower was completed in 2021, and it has since ranked among the city's tallest buildings. Visitors can admire the modern facade and its urban riverside location.
