Conde de Prates Building, Modernist skyscraper in downtown São Paulo, Brazil

Conde de Prates Building is a modernist skyscraper in downtown São Paulo that rises above the Anhangabaú Valley with a distinctive glass and concrete exterior. The structure displays strong horizontal lines across its facade and contains office and commercial spaces distributed across its numerous floors.

The building was constructed in 1956 replacing the former Prates Palace during São Paulo's major urban renewal period. Architect Giancarlo Palanti designed it as São Paulo transformed into a modern metropolis.

The name comes from Eduardo da Silva Prates, the Count of Prates, who owned the land in the Anhangabaú Valley. The Palacete Prates stood here until its demolition in 1951, and the site was then rebuilt as an office tower. The glass curtain wall Palanti added in 1952 replaced the earlier masonry facades of Elisiário Bahiana's 1945 project.

The main entrance is on Rua Líbero Badaró, with a second access from the Vale do Anhangabaú; the building faces São Paulo City Hall. The site lies between the Viaduto do Chá and the valley, so it is reached on foot from the surrounding central streets. Nine elevators serve the 33 floors.

The structure gained wider recognition when it appeared in a music video by Brazilian artist Belchior in 1979. Its position directly facing São Paulo City Hall across the valley creates a striking visual landmark pair.
