Spanning the Western Distributor Expressway and with an additional 230 rooms, the new tower will house 4800 square metres of conference space for up 3000 delegates split between two ballrooms and eleven breakout areas. The tower will have 5000 square metres of office space and a restaurant precinct that opens into Sussex St.

The tower will effectively conceal part of the expressway

The $160 million development will start construction in the first quarter of 2014 and is scheduled for completion in mid-2015. Cox Richardson architects designed the new tower with construction taking place in partnership with Brookfield Multiplex and Starwood Hotels, the managers of the property.
