The St Paul's Towers, (also called the City Lofts Towers or the Conran Towers), is a major development under construction in Sheffield City Centre, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. The scheme consists of a 32 storey tower called St Paul's Tower (Conran Tower, 1 St Paul's Place or City Lofts Tower), which is primarily faced with glass, along with a 9 storey block called St Paul's View (Conran View, 2 St Paul's Place or City Lofts View), which is primarily faced with glass, sandstone and bronze. They are linked at the bottom by one floor of retail space and a roof terrace atop the retail building. It fronts onto two new squares, Millennium Square and the as-yet incomplete St Paul's Square, soon to form part of a new bar and restaurant district. The towers and associated squares form part of the St Paul's Place, which also includes three office blocks, a multi-storey car park and a casino, and faces onto Hallam Square, less than 100 meters (328 ft) from Sheffield Midland Station. They represent just one element of the wider regeneration of the area around Sheffield Town Hall, known as the Heart of the City Project. The tower will be the tallest structure in Sheffield at 101 metres (330 ft), overtaking the Arts Tower by a significant margin. The tower and its smaller neighbour will provide private apartments for city centre living, with retail on the ground-floor of the tower, facing Arundel Gate and restaurants on the upper-ground floor of St Paul's View, facing St Paul's Place.
