It's kind of hard to imagine walking across Melbourne's Princes Bridge and not seeing the impressive Eureka Tower across the Yarra River at Southbank. Likewise its hard to imagine Brisbane's skyline without the beautiful white Riparian Plaza skyscraper at Eagle Point, and go 100 km south to the Gold Coast and it would look strange without the Q1 Tower at Surfers Paradise. Sydney's city skyline would also look odd without the distinctive Deutsche Bank Place skyscraper.

Perth's Brookfield Place is hardly going to win any prizes for architectural beauty, but it is now hard to imagine Perth without it. Adelaide and Darwin aren't known for many tall buildings, but Darwin's Evolution building dominates the skyline in the Northern Territory capital. Adelaide's SA Water Complex isn't by definition a skyscraper and nowhere near the tallest in South Australia, but it is a large, attractive and distinctive complex adjacent to Victoria Square and King William Street would look very odd without it.

What do the Eureka Tower, Riparian Plaza, Q1, Deutsche Bank Place, SA Water, Brookfield Place and Evolution Darwin all have in common? None were completed and in various stages of construction when Essendon last won a final, and in most of those cities other tall buildings have been constructed during the following years which approach or eclipse these skyscrapers in height.
