101 Collins Street is a 260 metre (853 foot) tall skyscraper located in Collins Street, Melbourne, Australia. The 57 storey building was completed in 1991 under the design by Denton Corker Marshall Pty Ltd. Towards the end of project, with a change of developer, the foyer space was designed by Johnson Burgee.
The tower is currently the 75th tallest existing building in the world when measured up to the tallest architectural point which is the 60 metre tall spire.
The tower contains 83,000m² of rentable space which are rented by large companies. The floor to ceiling height is unusually large for a skyscraper at 2.77 metres. The 30m lifts can reach speeds of 7 m/s. There are 414 underground car park spaces.
The building contains double glazed windows with surface coated tempered glass which will increase thermal efficiency.
The Consolidated Zinc Building was demolished for the construction of this building.
