Culwulla Chambers
The Culwulla Chambers is a heritage listed building located at 67 Castlereagh Street in Sydney, Australia. Its situated in the Central Business District of Sydney and it is notable for its Chicago-style architecture. The building was designed by Harry Kent and was completed in 1912. The building is colloquially named as Sydney's first skyscraper. Upon its completion, it became the focal point for debate in Sydney regarding restrictions on building height. This led ultimately to law being passed placing a moratorium on constructing new buildings taller than 150 feet. This height restriction was subsequently removed in 1955.The building is for commercial purposes. Historically, it was primarily an office space, but currently it serves as a business space for numerous companies as well as professionals, mainly lawyers. There are 20 barristers operating in Culwulla Chambers practicing in a variety of jurisdictions. They are all members of the New South Wales Bar Association.
