List of tallest buildings in Sydney
Sydney, the largest city in Australia, is home to 1,168 completed high-rise buildings, more than any other city in Australia.[1] Of those completed or topped out, the entire city (including metropolitan suburbs) has 39 buildings that rise at least 150 metres (490 ft) in height, and 10 which rise at least 200 metres (656 ft) in height – the second–highest number of skyscrapers in Australia,[2][3][4] as well as a further 18 buildings rising to at least 150 metres (490 ft) in height currently under construction.
Although the tallest buildings in the city have historically been concentrated in the central business district and immediate surrounding areas such as Barangaroo and Ultimo, suburbs within the Sydney metropolitan area have all seen a substantial surge in the development of high rises and skyscrapers in recent years, with major satellite centres such as Chatswood, Parramatta, North Sydney, St Leonards and Macquarie Park all witnessing or playing host to the construction of skyscrapers rising above 150 metres. As a result, Sydney has the tallest building and most skyscrapers (reaching at least 150 metres or above) outside an inner city area or core in all of Australia.[5]
Sydney was one of the first cities in Australia and internationally to welcome the introduction of skyscrapers and high-rise office blocks in the mid 20th century, alongside cities in North America such as New York City and Chicago. Witnessing a boom in the 20th century, Sydney has played host to various buildings which have held the title of the tallest building in Australia including the General Post Office, AWA Tower, AMP Building, MLC Centre, and the Australia Square tower in 1967 at 170 metres tall (558 ft), which was Australia's first true skyscraper as defined as rising above or at least 150 metres high.[6] Since 2020, Crown Sydney has been Sydney's tallest building and the 4th tallest building in Australia, rising to a height of 271 metres (889 ft).
History
The earliest high-rise constructed in Sydney was Culwulla Chambers, which stands at a height of 50 metres (160 ft) and was completed in 1912. Designed by Spain, Cosh and Minnett, the building consisted of 14 floors and cost £100,000 to build, equivalent of approximately $1 million in today's money.[7]
Sydney originally had a 46-metre (151 ft) height limit that was enforced until 1957.[8][9] The abolition of this limit saw a construction boom for skyscrapers and buildings beginning in the early 1960s with the construction of the Australia Square, notable for being the world's tallest light weight concrete building at the time it was built[10][11] and is also notable for being the first skyscraper in Australia. Since August 1981, the tallest structure in Sydney is the Sydney Tower, at 309 m (1,014 ft).[12] However, according to the international standard of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, observation towers are not fully habitable and do not count as buildings.[13] Hence, the tallest building in Sydney is Crown Sydney, which was completed in 2020 and stands at 271 m (889 ft). It is also the fourth tallest building in Australia.
A recent 235-metre (771 ft) height restriction implementation had slowed Sydney's high-rise developments. However, this height restriction was lifted in 2016 which now allows buildings to be built as high as 310 metres (1,020 ft) on condition that public spaces are not overshadowed.[14] This was raised to 330 metres (1,080 ft) at the end of 2019.[15]
Sydney's most recent residential tower, 505 George Street, will rise 270 metres, comprising 80 stories much of it serviced apartments. As the tower penetrates Sydney Airport's Obstacle Limitation Surfaces (OLS) it will require an Aeronautical Impact assessment approval.[16]
In December 2019, Crown Sydney, a mixed use tower under construction in the Barangaroo precinct, overtook Chifley Tower's tallest height of 244 metres (801 feet).
