The City Centre is the core central activities district (CAD) of Greater Melbourne.
It encompasses a number of places of significance, which include the, Federation Square, Melbourne Aquarium, Melbourne Town Hall,  State Library of Victoria, State Parliament of Victoria and Supreme Court of Victoria.
It is also the main terminus for the Melbourne metropolitan and Victorian regional passenger rail networks–being Flinders Street and Southern Cross stations respectively, as well as the most dense section of the Melbourne tram network.

Bordering its north-east perimeter is the World Heritage-listed Royal Exhibition Building and Carlton Gardens as well as the Melbourne Museum.
Just to the south are the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, Melbourne Casino, Arts Centre Melbourne, and the National Gallery of Victoria
The City Centre is a major financial centre in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.
It is home to the corporate headquarters of the World's two largest mining companies: BHP and Rio Tinto Group; as well as two of Australia's "big four" banks: ANZ and the National Australia Bank, its two largest gaming companies: Crown and Tabcorp, largest telecommunications company Telstra, two largest transport management companies: Toll and Transurban and the iconic brewing company Foster's Group.

It also serves as the main administrative centre for the City of Melbourne as well as the State Government of Victoria – the latter with the suburb of East Melbourne.
Two universities have major campuses in the area: the main city campus RMIT University (city campus), and three campuses for Victoria University (City King, Queen, Flinders campuses).
The Victorian College of the Arts campus of the University of Melbourne lies just to the south.

Melbourne City Centre, along with the adjacent Southbank area, has had comparatively unrestricted height limits in recent years, and has four of the six tallest buildings in Australia (or 5 of the top 10, excluding spires).
The tallest in the CBD is currently Aurora Melbourne Central which topped out in December 2018.
Melbourne had historically competed with Sydney for the tallest buildings, which until the 2000s were all office towers, and the three tallest buildings in Australia in the 1980s and 1990s were all in the Melbourne CBD.
