Windsor House

Windsor House (officially known as 9-15 Bedford Street) is a high-rise office building in Bedford Street, Belfast, Northern Ireland. The building was the tallest storeyed building on the island of Ireland before being surpassed by Obel Tower (also in Belfast) and stands at 80 metres (262 feet) tall, with 23 floors.

Being the former tallest building on the Island of Ireland, Windsor House is iconic for its tall green elevator shaft and green side wall facade, as well as for its satellite and aerial masts which stand a further seven meters in the air.

In March 2007 a County Cavan building company P Elliot bought the block for £30m, with the intention of converting the building into luxury apartments.[1]

Tenants

The building houses many private and government organisations and companies, including the Parole Commissioners Office, the Belfast HM Revenues & Customs office, the Information Service of Northern Ireland, AXA Insurance, the Northern Ireland Courts and Tribunals Service, the NI Parades Commission, the European Commission and the British-Irish Joint Secretariat.
