The 30 Pirie Street, formerly Telstra House, is a high-rise building that is located in the Adelaide central business district on the northern side of Pirie Street. It rises 117 metres above the ground and has 23 floors.[1]
Construction of the building began in 1984 and was completed in 1987. Upon completion, Telecom House became the tallest building in Adelaide at 104 metres (341 ft),[2] but Westpac House overtook the tallest building position in 1988.
A major refurbishment of the building took place in 2019.[1]
30 Pirie Street was originally owned by Telstra but later sold to Australian Unity. Telstra will vacate the building in August 2023.[3]
In December 2022, it was acquired by Quintessential (company), a privately owned property development company, for $73 million and rebranded as 30 Pirie Street.[4][5][6][7]
