The Building

Distinctive Towers

The Centre comprises two distinctive towers, National Bank Tower rising 17 storeys and DLA Phillips Fox Tower rising 22 storeys.  These iconic towers rise from a spacious light-enriched plaza of marble floors and sweeping stairways, mezzanines, hanging gardens, a waterfall, sculptures, art works and shops, and the bank after which the complex is named.  The plaza is freely accessible through wide entranceways onto all four thoroughfares bordering the complex.

The ground floor lobby has recently had an upgrade.  A new espresso bar, operated by Mojo, has been added, creating a fresh new meeting place.  New lift car interiors and upgrades to ceiling lights, signage and planting have also been part of the modernisation.

Service cores in each tower are positioned against the inwardly-opposing curved walls, thus protecting and maximizing the views outwards – the twin towers provide spectacular views of the city, the harbour and the environs that stretch beyond.

Tower One (National Bank Tower) orientated to the north-east of the site presents sweeping vistas from the upper levels which capture the sunrise, the Waitemata Harbour and its entrance, the Hauraki Gulf and the excitement of downtown Auckland.

Tower Two (DLA Phillips Fox Tower) faces south-west with vistas of spectacular sunsets over the upper Waitemata, the Waitakere Ranges beyond the city, and to the cultural heart of Auckland including the Aotea Centre and the historic Town Hall building.
