350 Queen Street, also known as Queens Place Melbourne, is on the verge of Flagstaff Hill, the city’s highest point. The distinctive 80-storey two towers enlivens and enriches the character of Melbourne's Queen Victoria Market Precinct.
The five podium levels of Queens Place have a variety of uses such as retail, childcare, carparking and commercial suites.
Partnering for success
WSP has provided ongoing structural and civil engineering services for this high-rise project. Working with the developer and the architectural design and consultant teams, we devised a master plan for the site.
The design process gave rise to a concept that enhances the ground plane, creating new connections in an improved public realm within the Queen Victoria Market Precinct. Atop the podium level, the towers are shaped and sculpted to complement other buildings within and around the site.
Enriching an iconic destination
Using a collaborative approach, our intent is to form a distinctive high-rise urban village in Australia’s most liveable city. Construction started in January 2018 and was completed in 2021.
