UTS Tower, Brutalist educational tower in Sydney, Australia
The UTS Tower rises 120 meters with 27 floors of exposed concrete surfaces and geometric patterns, forming a central structure at Broadway Street.
Architect Donald Thwaites designed this educational facility, which opened in 1979 as part of the New South Wales Institute of Technology.
The building represents a period when educational institutions adopted brutalist architecture to express modernity and institutional authority through concrete forms.
The tower contains administrative offices, academic departments, study spaces, and a public plaza connected to the newer UTS Central building.
The structure features an upward tapering design that maximizes views from upper levels while creating a strong visual presence in Sydney's skyline.
