After years of delays and controversy, it looks as if the construction of the Tour Triangle skyscraper, designed by the Swiss studio Herzog & de Meuron, can begin.
The construction of the Tour Triangle has attracted a lot of criticism in recent years, and the mayor of the district that provides the site, Philippe Goujon, is still opposed to the construction of the unusual-looking building. According to Mr. Goujon, changed working conditions in the wake of the Covid-19 outbreak no longer justify the development of such a building, but it now looks as if construction could start before the end of this year. The Tour Triangle would provide offices, a conference center, shops, restaurants and a hotel. If completed (currently scheduled for 2026), it would be the third tallest building in Paris.
