History

Architecture

Located on Rua Itapeti an avenue in the Tatuapé district of São Paulo, the tower's construction began in 2017 under the management of the Porte Engenharia e Urbanismo construction firm, and took about four years to complete.[3] According to the company, the project was labeled as "self sustainable", and includes, among other facilities, the use of natural lighting, solar-powered water heating, an automated irrigation system connected to the rainwater harvesting system, and elevators with biometric identification that take 50 seconds to reach the top floor.[4][5] The tower also provides a 270° view of the city's urban panorama through each of its habitable floors.[6]

About 2.1 km from Figueira Altos, also in Tatuapé, the new tallest skyscraper in São Paulo was inaugurated, the Platina 220, measuring 172 meters high, which is a mixed-use building that brings together, in a single tower, hotel rooms, apartments, offices, stores and corporate slabs.[6]
