Colonial State Bank Centre

Office block at 52 Martin Place between Elizabeth and Phillip Streets, directly above Martin Place railway station. Built in the 1980s as a new State Bank building on the site of the former Art Deco Rural Bank of New South Wales. Designed by Peddle, Thorp and Walker, it includes a 36 level glass curtained tower and a two storey atrium above a marbled lobby. Ram's head plaques from the earlier building have been re-used at various points around the building. In 2004 television station Channel Seven established a studio on the ground floor of the building.
