AMP Centre.
When it was built in 1976 it boasted 45 floors with the sole purpose of providing commercial office space all of which were contained within the concrete, steel and glass enclosure.
At the time of its completion the Peddle Thorp & Walker designed Mainline built structure had a roof height of 188 metres (617ft) which made it Sydney’s tallest building where from 2011-2017 the Port Authority of NSW positioned a radar on the top of the building to monitor commercial shipping in Sydney Harbour.
In 2013 BVN Architecture Pty Ltd (trading as Bligh Voller Nield) designed a masterplan for the Quay Quarter Sydney project which involved a new tower.
BVN in conjunction with AMP Capital and the City of Sydney conducted a design competition for Quay Quarter Tower which saw the winning design entry submitted by 3XN a Danish architectural practice headquartered in Copenhagen and with offices in Stockholm, London, New York and Sydney.
BVN were appointed as the Executive Architect to work with 3XN and develop their design for construction.
Construction began in early 2018 following the approvals of the project in 2015.
The appointment of the lead contractor for the project was Multiplex and they were tasked with a rebuild and reclad of the building’s exterior along with a height increase and the incorporation of the existing floor space.
Overall the building would be transformed with a complete modernisation of its external appearance and design.
On completion the redevelopment phase the height of the building was increased to a height of 216 m (709 ft) and now boasted a new floor level of 54 floors with a completely revamped interior and a100% increase in total floor space.
Today the AMP Centre is known as Quay Quarter Tower and was topped out in 2021 (In building construction, topping out (sometimes referred to as topping off) is a builders' rite traditionally held when the last beam (or its equivalent) is placed atop a structure during its construction.
Nowadays, the ceremony is often parlayed into a media event for public relations purposes. It has since come to mean more generally finishing the structure of the building, whether there is a ceremony or not. It is also commonly used to determine the amount of wind on the top of the structure).
It was finally completed in early 2022.
The International High-Rise Award in November 2022 paid the ultimate recognition outstanding contribution of 3XN and BVN injected into the project.
But the greatest honour was bestowed in December 2022 when the architects were awarded the World Building of the Year Award announced at the World Architecture Festival held in Lisbon, Portugal.

I was in #Amsterdam this week and decided to stop by the #eyemuseum to see If I could capture this awesome building in a long exposure. The location was awesome and the conditions were perfect, great light, great skies with fast moving clouds in the right direction! I decided on the composition, made a testshot and all was perfect¦ I took my HighTech 10-stopper out and if I could only find my filter holder i’d be all set!

European starlings (Common starling) are native to Europe and Asia and were introduced to North America in the late 1800s. They are now found throughout BC, especially around cities and agricultural landscapes. They nest in trees and human-built structures and are very aggressive when looking for nesting sites. Starlings will easily out-compete native birds and can even kill larger birds when competing for nesting sites.
