[edit]where in the city is this building being constructed? Wiki ian 10:49, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- It will be located at 125 St Georges Terrace, right across the road from Central Park. Cflm001 (Talk) 20:18, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
Spire (or lack thereof)
[edit]The source is CULWULLA in [http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=900486&page=24 the City Square thread] on SkyscraperCity. TRS-80 (talk) 16:58, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, like, the word of some random person on a forum doesn't really cut it. Sorry. Maybe when the developers put out a press release, or Emporis gets updated, then it's reliable enough. - Mark 12:29, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- To be fair, Culwulla isn't some random person - he's been around SSC a long while and does a lot of diagrams of skyscrapers. One of the other members, Dilaz89 is an admin of Emporis, so getting that updated based on the thread wouldn't be hard. TRS-80 (talk) 19:07, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
- Anyway, I've removed it as there was no reference given for it in the first place. - Mark 00:27, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Wrong name?
[edit]According to the onsite signage, the name of the building is still City Square Office Tower despite the development changing name to Brookfield Place.

- Hmmmm, Interesting. I only moved it because the title had changed in the article and when I looked up City Square in Perth the website took me to Brookfield Place. --kelapstick(bainuu) 05:01, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- This article calls it Brookfield Place, Barrick Gold (other occupant) lists them at Brookfield Place (note their Canadian office is also in a building called Brookfield Place). I think that sign was there the last time I went through there a couple months ago, maybe it was installed after they changed the name of the building. --kelapstick(bainuu) 05:07, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- Also, The West Australian calls it Brookfield place, but says that BHP has secured the naming rights, and there is a sign in front that says BHP Billion Centre, so maybe it will change again. --kelapstick(bainuu) 05:10, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- To confuse things even further, the Brookfield Place website (http://www.citysquare.com.au/ !) refers to the office tower as 125 St Georges Terrace.[1]. I would think the best way to deal with this would be to refocus the article, making it about the entire development rather than just the tower (in the same vein as the Canadian Brookfield Place article). Again on the Canadian connection - Barrick Gold's Canadian office is based at TD Canada Trust Tower, which is one of several buildings in the Brookfield Place complex. Hack (talk) 05:43, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- I might just be confused (note the hat notes I put on both articles, which I will change), I didn't realise that the Canadian article was about the complex. So what you are saying is that City Square is a building within Brookfield Place? Well that makes sense then. I will change the hat notes accordingly, but will let someone who knows more about this article fix the context (or move it back to the specific building page name if required). --kelapstick(bainuu) 05:49, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- I just took a walk past the building and there are multiple signs showing the name as City Square or City Square Office Building. Hack (talk) 07:16, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- I moved it back to City Square, as the article is still about the sky scraper, I made note that it is within Brookfield Place, should anyone want to change the redirect to an article, or expand this to cover the entire development and move it back. --kelapstick(bainuu) 04:11, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
- The onsite signage has changed again to Brookfield Place... Hack (talk) 09:11, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
