At 1,211 feet (369 meters), it is the tallest structure in the city. It is built of C 60 class concrete and carries a steel antenna 551 feet (168 meters) tall.

The tower has 49 floors, two observation decks and two restaurant floors. Panoramic elevators serve it, and it has capacity for 100 broadcasting transmitters. The article does not name an architectural style or a client beyond the owner. It gives May 29, 2021, as the opening date.
