Population growth and the push to live in a city is, a universal problem placing pressure on limited, resources such as land. High density living is one, solution that could address this. Located at the, western end of Circular Quay, the APDG Tower aims, to revive the historical Tank Stream which holds, communal importance to Sydney-siders. It will, collect Sydney's urban topography, the city grain, and its urban fabric re-constructing them into, sustainable vertical layers.
The 48-storey mixed-use tower consists of, strategically arranged offices, vertical villages, retail ring, sky garden, and residential units. Design, strategies are carefully applied with modelled and, tested shading treatments to ensure optimised, results are achieved.
