One Eastside is a residential skyscraper under construction in Birmingham, United Kingdom. It is planned to be 155 metres tall, and contains 51 stories.[1] Upon completion, it would become the joint tallest building in Birmingham and the West Midlands, with Octagon, which is also under construction and also expected to be 155 metres tall. One Eastside and Octagon would become Birmingham's first buildings to be taller than 150 metres, and are defined as skyscrapers by the Council of Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat.

The scheme also includes a second 16-story building. It is developed by local developer Court Collaboration.[2] The scheme is located near the upcoming HS2 station. It is expected to cost £160 million.[3]
