The Riverside Centre is a skyscraper designed by Harry Seidler and located at 123 Eagle Street, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Completed in 1986, it is 40 levels and 146 m above ground.

The base of the building fronts the Brisbane River with a CityCat wharf, has many cafes and restaurants, and is the site for the Riverside markets on Sundays. The building has been heritage listed and holds the Brisbane Stock exchange.

Norman Carlberg was the sculptor who collaborated with Seidler on works for the Riverside project.

Riparian Plaza, the second major building in Brisbane designed by Seidler, was completed in 2005, next to the Riverside Centre.
