Collins Arch

Building Description

Comprising a prominent block in Melbourne’s CBD, this development demonstrates how an under-utilized part of the city can be transformed into a vibrant urban community. It greatly expands the network of public spaces and reinforces the city’s link with the Yarra River. Anchoring the site is a pair of tapered 164-meter towers connected by an elevated sky bridge. The first truly mixed-use building in Australia, Collins Arch features 184 apartments, a five-star W Hotel, nearly 50,000sqm of WELL-rated offices, ground floor retail facing public green space, and a covered public amphitheatre. The 5-star Greenstar designed complex is the winner of the top award for Commercial Architecture, and commended in Urban Design, 2021 Victorian Architecture Awards.
