A 50-plus-level, $1.5 billion commercial tower designed between Woods Bagot and New York firm SHoP Architects is being described as the future of commercial buildings, that will bring workers back to the office through its fresh working environment.
Developed by Mirvac, the preliminary design was recently named the winner of the City of Sydney’s International Design Excellence competition.
Tom Waters, Mirvac’s commercial development director, says that despite the COVID-19 pandemic dragging people into a working from home space, developments such as 55 Pitt Street will bring those people back into the office.
“We are very optimistic about the future. We believe that, providing you’re supplying interesting and flexible workplaces, people will want to work there, and this building offers tenants the future vision of calmer waters over the horizon.
