One Raffles Quay is an office building complex located at Raffles Place within the Downtown Core, the central business district of Singapore.

Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox, the building consists of two office towers. The 50-storey North Tower will have a height of 245 metres on completion, while the 29-storey South Tower will have a height of 140 metres. The total floor area of the office towers combined is 148,000 square metres (1.59 million square feet). The complex incorporates a podium block, a hub car park and a 4,180 square meter (45,000 square feet) subterranean retail mall which will be linked to the Raffles Place MRT Station. The building has been completed in the third quarter of 2006 with tenants already occupying the South Tower. Barclays Capital occupies the top floors of the South Tower, with ABN Amro, UBS and Fitness First being the anchor tenants in the North Tower.
