LG Gangnam Tower

LG Gangnam Tower is a 38-story skyscraper with a contemporary glass and steel exterior that rises 173 meters into Seoul's skyline. The building contains office spaces, retail shops, restaurants, fitness clubs, and parking facilities connected directly to Seoul's subway network.

The LG Gangnam Tower was built in 1997 during a period of rapid commercial development in the Gangnam district. This building represented South Korea's economic growth and the city's transformation into a modern business center.

The LG Arts Center inside hosts Korean and international performances in its theater and exhibition halls year-round. Visitors experience contemporary shows and art displays that shape the cultural life of the district.

The building connects directly to the subway system, making it easy to reach and avoiding long walks from the station. The mix of offices, shops, and restaurants inside provides options for visitors to shop, dine, or spend time in different spaces.

The arts center inside uses soundproof engineering that allows performances and business operations to happen at the same time without disturbing each other. This makes the building unusual because two very different activities can coexist peacefully in the same space.
