AMP Tower (527–535 Bourke Street) is a skyscraper situated in Melbourne, Australia, on the corner of Bourke and Williams Streets in the central business district. AMP Tower is one of the earliest and most prominent examples of early modernist architecture in Australia.The tower, designed to maximise floor area with respect to the lot size, is one of the earliest examples of a corporate modernism in Australia.[1] A 2010 renovation of the surrounding pedestrian ways and creation of covered walkways has made the tower more integrated with the St James building and St James Plaza which share the block. The AMP Square comprises The AMP Tower, The St James Building, and St James Plaza dividing the two structures. It was regarded as a "significant Melbourne island site... [known] to be the red, pre-cast brutalist building" by Andrew Norbury, chief executive of architecture firm Metier3, [5] who was responsible for its development in 2013.
