The building underwent a significant expansion during its redevelopment, which was completed in 2019. The new floor plates now span 2,800 sqm on the lower levels and 1,500 sqm on the upper levels. Previously known as Bowen State Building, Defence House has been transformed into a modern, dynamic workspace.
