Deutsch: Das ICI House, das heute Orica House genannt wird, ist ein 20-stöckiges Bürogebäude im östlichen Melbourne in Victoria, Australien. Es war nach seiner Fertigstellung im Jahr 1958 das höchste Gebäude Australiens und der erste Wolkenkratzer Australiens dessen Hülle in Gänze verglast war. Diese Bauweise wurde anschließend für den Ausbau der Stadtzentren Australiens bestimmend. Der verglaste Turm wurde am 25. September 2005 in die Australian National Heritage List und auch in die Victoria Heritage List als schützenswert aufgenommen. (→ICI House)
English: ICI House (now Orica House) is a 20-storey office building in East Melbourne, Australia. It was the tallest building in Australia upon completion in 1958, and the first to break Melbourne's long standing height limit. It was one of the earliest fully glazed commercial skyscrapers in Australia. The move from low to high-rise office buildings changed the profile, shape and landscape of Australia's major urban centres forever. It symbolised progress, modernity, efficiency and corporate power in postwar Melbourne and was being constructed at the time of the 1956 Melbourne Olympics when the city was being showcased on the world stage.
