Brisbane Skytower is a 269.6-metre (885 ft) skyscraper at 222 Margaret Street in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The 90-storey residential tower is Brisbane's tallest building, and the sixth tallest building in Australia.[3] It is also the largest residential building in the southern hemisphere.[4]

Brisbane Skytower is one of two buildings in the 111+222 development; the other being a 42-storey, five-star Westin hotel at 111 Mary Street which was sold in September 2015 to the Felicity Hotel Group and now known as Mary Lane.[5]

The residential tower includes 1,138 one, two and three-bedroom apartments as well as sub-penthouse and penthouse apartments. A recreation deck, on the 90th floor, features Australia's highest infinity-edge swimming pool.[6] An eight-level basement car park is included in the project, containing a total of 980 spaces.[7]

The project was developed by Billbergia and AMP Capital with US funds giant Invesco providing debt funding.
