Hochhaus Uptown München is an office tower in the Moosach district of Munich near the Olympiastadion, designed by Ingenhoven, Overdiek Architects of Düsseldorf. Hines Immobilien developed it, and it was built between 2001 and 2004 for about 300 million euros. The Government of Singapore bought the tower and one campus building in 2006. The article names no style and calls the structure cuboid.

The tower has 38 storeys, including three below ground, and a roof height of 146 meters. A glass facade wraps the structure like a tensioned membrane. Circular, individually opening windows provide natural ventilation. A campus with a transparent roof connects four seven-storey buildings and a fifth with 139 apartments. The Georg-Brauchle-Ring U-Bahn station is integrated into the basement.

It is the tallest skyscraper in Munich. A November 2004 citizens' vote prevented other buildings of this height.
