Tour Aurore, Skyscraper in La Défense, France.
Tour Aurore rises 131 meters into the Courbevoie skyline with 29 floors of office space and copper-colored windows across its facade.
The office tower opened in 1971 as part of the expansion of La Défense business district and remained unoccupied since the 1990s.
The building represents the architectural movement of the 1970s that transformed Paris western suburbs into a major European financial center.
The structure underwent renovation plans in 2018 when investment firm Aermont acquired the property and canceled previous demolition projects.
Despite standing empty for decades and facing demolition threats, Tour Aurore received a second life through preservation instead of replacement.
