Notable features

The second finished apartment tower of the Yarras Edge development, Yarras Edge 2 is a plain residential tower differentiated by the use of bright primary colours. Most notably, the roof of Yarras Edge 2 is topped by red, yellow and blue squares. This follows a trend of colours for the precinct in the tradition of Denton Corker Marshall buildings. Similar colours are used to juxtapose vertical and horizontal dividers for the apartments on the building facade.
