Melbourne Scores Australia’s Tallest Tower
Folks, Melbourne is set to score some chungus-sized towers. What’s more, one of these towers will be the tallest building in Australia.
But what are the names of these colossal buildings? Well, there’s an “East Tower” and a “West Tower.” The East Tower will be over 322.5m high and Australia’s tallest building. Meanwhile, the West Tower, while not as tall, will be an impressive 67 storeys.
These buildings will be known collectively as Melbourne’s twin towers. They will be built in Southbank and cost $8 billion to make.
A Government spokesperson has stated that these twin towers will “create a new destination for Melburnians and tourists, injecting millions into the economy and creating thousands of jobs during and after construction.”
“This development will bring new life to a much-loved part of Melbourne, providing a thriving new hub for retail, hospitality, and financial services.”
