Alekseevskaya Tower, Fortified tower in Moscow, Russia
Alekseevskaya Tower is a contemporary high-rise building in Moscow with a circular design and extensive window openings throughout. The structure stands 18 floors above ground with 4 additional levels below, creating spaces that face toward nearby exhibition grounds and the Ostankino Tower.
The site once held a fortified tower from the 17th century that served as part of Moscow's defensive ring, but it was demolished in the 1770s as the city expanded and modernized. The current building represents the evolution of this location from military outpost to contemporary business complex.
The tower structure represents the architectural methods and defensive strategies employed during medieval Russian fortification construction.
The building is accessible through multiple entrances and features modern elevator systems for easy movement between levels throughout the complex. Visitors should know that this is an active business district, so it tends to be quieter during early mornings or late afternoons.
The building's rooftop includes a dedicated helicopter landing pad, a feature rarely seen on typical office complexes in the city. This practical addition reflects the specialized functions and services housed within the structure.
