Tour Lumina, Commercial building in Fort-de-France, Martinique.
Tour Simon stands 105.5 meters tall with twenty floors, making it the tallest building in Martinique and housing office spaces, a restaurant, and residential apartments within its modern structure.
Built between 2007 and 2010 on the historic Pointe Simon site where Martinique's first sugar factory was established in 1845, the tower represents the island's industrial evolution over centuries.
The complex symbolizes Fort-de-France's architectural modernization by combining commercial and residential functions, reflecting Martinique's adaptation to contemporary urban challenges while preserving its industrial heritage and colonial memory.
The tower remains accessible from various Fort-de-France neighborhoods through public transportation networks and offers diverse services including offices, restaurants, and shops all within the same convenient location.
