Torre Banco Macro, Modern office building in Puerto Madero, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Torre Banco Macro is a glass and steel office tower in Puerto Madero, a modern neighborhood of Buenos Aires, rising around 28 floors above street level. The building sits among other office towers in the financial area of the Argentine capital and follows a contemporary architectural style.
Construction of Torre Banco Macro began in 2012, and its external structure was completed in June 2016. It was designed by Argentine architect César Pelli to bring all of the bank's corporate departments together in a single building on Avenida Madero, in Buenos Aires's main corporate centre. The tower was planned to house more than 2,000 employees from 2018.
Torre Banco Macro serves as the headquarters of one of Argentina's largest banks, giving the tower a strong presence in the Puerto Madero business area. The glass facade reflects the surrounding buildings and shifts in appearance depending on the light and hour of the day.
The building is in Puerto Madero, a neighborhood that is easy to reach on foot from the city center and served by several bus lines. As it is a private office building, access is generally limited to staff and visitors with appointments.
The tower was designed to bring all of Banco Macro's corporate areas under one roof, with room for more than 2,000 staff, an auditorium for 200 people, a gym, a medical office, a nursery and three basement parking levels. Its external structure was finished in June 2016, four years after construction began.
