MELBOURNE SKYDECK
This 297-metre-high establishment in Melbourne is one of the world's tallest residential buildings.
The Eureka Tower was once one of the world's tallest residential buildings (297 m). Two elevators take visitors to the 88thfloor in less than 40 seconds. From there, a glass cube, The Edge, slides down from the building, allowing you to observe the city, suspended in mid-air. The tower's name, Eureka, recalls the rebellion of the miners of Eureka (a gold mine near Ballarat) against the colonial authorities in 1854. The building's exterior colors (red and gold) represent the blood of the barricades and the gold that was mined on the site.
