One Queensbridge is poised to become a truly significant building for Melbourne and will contribute to the city’s evolution as a world-class tourism destination.

Located next to to the Yarra River amongst Melbourne’s premier living and leisure destinations, the proposed tallest tower in Australia will become an extension of Crown Melbourne Resort and comprise a new six star, 388 room luxury hotel. One Queensbridge is addressing Melbourne’s increasing tourism demands, in addition to 708 luxury, high-end residences that will deliver a new standard of apartment living.

British firm Wilkinson Eyre has been appointed as principal architect and have crafted an elegant design that embraces three interlocking sculptural forms which provide a graceful and unique addition to the Melbourne skyline.

One Queensbridge will also include:

• A public space for Melbournians with a major upgrade to Queensbridge Square
• A rooftop Sky Bar
• Restaurants and bars
• An activated street front with retail and office space
• A sculptural pedestrian link for all-weather access and a new, 24-hour pedestrian laneway connecting through to Freshwater Place

Tony Schiavello, Schiavello Group Governing Director and Executive Chairman said, "This site deserves a truly special building and our vision is to create a landmark that has international appeal, timeless form and design. We want to create a place that people are proud to call home.”

The project will also bring significant economic and employment benefits to Victoria with an additional 3,000 new direct and indirect jobs during construction and in excess of 1,000 new direct and indirect jobs on an on-going basis after completion.

One Queensbridge offers Schiavello and joint venture partner Crown Resorts an opportunity to contribution to Victoria’s reputation as an exceptional world-class destination, enhance the urban amenity of Southbank and provide an architectural icon to the Melbourne skyline.

Planning review is currently underway by the relevant authorities for the proposed development.
