Iberdrola Tower, Steel and glass skyscraper in Abandoibarra district, Bilbao, Spain.
Iberdrola Tower is a 165-meter-high building with 41 floors and a modern glass facade in the Abandoibarra district. The structure serves as a corporate headquarters and houses office spaces for multiple tenants.
The tower opened in 2012 and became a landmark in redeveloping the city's former industrial area. This project was part of a broader urban renewal effort that lifted Bilbao from economic decline.
