AMP Square
AMP Square (527–535 Bourke Street) is a skyscraper situated in Melbourne, Australia, on the corner of Bourke and Williams Streets in the central business district. The tower, designed to maximise floor area with respect to the lot size, is one of the earliest examples of a corporate modernism in Australia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://melbournebuildings.com/amp-square-535-bourke-street-melbourne/ )〕 A 2010 renovation of the surrounding pedestrian ways and creation of covered walkways has made the tower more integrated with the St James building and St James Plaza which share the block.
==Site History==
Prior to the AMP building, there existed a school on the site founded by The “Pioneer Church” which was erected four years after the establishment of Melbourne on 11 February 1837. The “Pioneer Church” was succeeded by what is now the St James Old Cathedral on 9 November 1839, which sat on a five-acre lot of land situated between William, Bourke, and Collins Streets.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= St James Old Cathedral )〕 St James Old Cathedral faced many issues after the turn of the century with the pressure of occupying valuable land within the Central Business District, maintenance problems and a dwindling congregation. The Cathedral narrowly escaped demolition and was relocated up the road to Batman Street, near Flagstaff Gardens in West Melbourne. Nearby Church Street, Church Lane, and St James Lane, all attest their name to the relocated Cathedral. The Cathedral also lends its name to the St James Building and Plaza, which resides on The AMP Square.
