Brisbane Square Tower 2 is a proposed office building to be located at 266 George Street in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
The 36-storey, modern style, office building will be developed at the open plaza, known as Reddacliff Place, adjoining the existing Brisbane Square Tower. The site is located at the apex of the Queen Street Mall in the Brisbane CBD’s North Quarter Precinct and adjacent to the new Queens Wharf entertainment precinct. The amount of the ground floor plaza occupied by the development will be reduced as the architects have proposed a “suspended tower” with the building lobby elevated to the podium level.
The QSuper will be the anchor tenant precommitted for nearly half of the building (17,200sq m or 40%).
Development application was lodged with the Brisbane City Council in November 2017. The project is forecast for completion in late 2020. [1] [2] [3]
In late November, the Brisbane City Council put a protective measure on the site, as an emergency response to the development application, to prevent any future development proposals above Reddacliff Place. [4]

The Christchurch Central Recovery Plan, often referred to as the Blueprint, is the plan developed by the Fifth National Government of New Zealand for the recovery of the Christchurch Central City from a series of earthquakes, in particular the February 2011 Christchurch earthquake. The Canterbury Earthquake Response and Recovery Act 2010 required the Christchurch City Council to develop a recovery plan for the central city. The plan, known as Share an Idea, was presented to the Minister for Canterbury Earthquake Recovery, Gerry Brownlee, in December 2011. Brownlee rejected the city council's plan, established the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (CERA), and tasked that organisation with developing a plan based on the city council's draft. The Christchurch Central Recovery Plan was published in July 2012 and defined 17 anchor projects. All projects where a timeline was specified were to have been finished by 2017; none of the 17 projects have been delivered on time and some have not even been started yet.
