Southern Cross Tower, Skyscraper in Melbourne, Australia.
The Southern Cross Tower rises 161 meters with two connected sections, featuring glass facades that reflect sunlight across the Melbourne business district.
The construction of this 39-floor structure in 2004 marked a major transformation of the former Southern Cross Hotel location in central Melbourne.
The building represents a shift in Melbourne's governmental operations by centralizing multiple Victorian state departments that were previously scattered across the city.
The east tower contains 76,700 square meters of office space, primarily occupied by the Department of Justice and the State Revenue Office.
The building incorporates a water recycling system that processes 20 million liters annually for maintenance operations throughout the complex.
