It was a Brutalist[5][6] office building located behind Parliament House and close to Salamanca Place.

[1] To avoid the expense of importing steel it was built of reinforced concrete with an externally expressed frame.

[1] In 2009 the State Government announced Citta Property Group as the successful applicant for its plans to sell 10 Murray Street for the redevelopment of the "Parliament Square" precinct.

[3][4] The redevelopment was originally to have been completed in 2012,[4] with works beginning in March 2010,[4] but the project has been delayed due to an appeal by the "Save 10 Murray" group, led by Briony Kidd.

Three proposals were shortlisted for the redevelopment during the tender process, of which one design would retain and retrofit 10 Murray Street, while the two other plans would demolish the building.
