Horizon Apartments
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Horizon Apartments, also short The Horizon, is a residential high rise building in Darlinghurst, a suburb in the inner-city of Sydney, NSW, Australia. It is located on at 184 Forbes Street between Liverpool and William Streets.
The 43 story prestressed concrete structure, designed by the Austro-Australian architect Harry Seidler was constructed between 1990 and 1998 by the Melbourne based Grollo Constructions, generally also known as Grocon and features 260 apartments with a total floor space of 32,000 m².
It has a distinctive scalloped facade, and is finished in rendered concrete. Located at 184 Forbes St, Darlinghurst, the controversial highrise was completed in 1998. Controversy stems from the height of the building and the shadowing effects on surrounding buildings.
