Melbourne Quarter Tower (MQT) is the signature centrepiece of the broader Melbourne Quarter precinct—one of the most ambitious mixed-use developments in the Docklands. Standing 34 storeys high, MQT delivers next-generation workplace design, setting new standards in sustainability, flexibility, and occupant wellbeing.
As the largest building within the precinct, MQT provides over 140,000 m² of commercial space and supports up to 14,000 employees, establishing itself as a key contributor to Melbourne’s growing business and innovation ecosystem.
