    The building

    The Philadelphia stands on the corner of Spring Street and Flinders Lane, opposite the Treasury Gardens. The current residential tower was completed in 2001 to a design by the architecture firm Robert Peck von Hartel Trethowan, built by Multiplex. It reused the frame of an earlier office building on the site, which gained extra floors and a new glazed façade in place of its old brickwork.
