111 George Street

111 George Street is a 31-floor government office tower that rises 145 meters including its antenna spire. The structure features floor-to-floor office spaces arranged throughout its height.

The building was designed by architect Robin Gibson and opened in 1993 as part of Brisbane's plan to expand government office facilities. It emerged during a period of growth and development in the city's administrative infrastructure.

The building houses offices of several government departments that serve the public and handle various administrative needs. Its presence in the heart of the business district makes it a recognizable landmark for residents conducting official business.

The building sits in the central business district with excellent access to public transportation options. It connects easily to nearby transit stations and neighboring administrative facilities.

The exterior facade features a repeating grill pattern that led local residents to give the building the nickname 'cheese grater'. This distinctive design element became part of the city's architectural character.
