An appeal against the planned 36-storey replacement for Suncorp Plaza in Brisbane’s CBD had the design altered to improve views of the Uniting Church on Albert Street.

The Uniting Church launched the appeal after Brisbane City Council approved the demolition of Suncorp Plaza and the construction of a new glass-plated tower on the site, between Albert and Turbot streets.

Negotiations between Turbit Nominees and the church continued through the court process until the design of the tower was adjusted to not overshadow the church.
