Wisma 46, Modern skyscraper in Sudirman, Indonesia.
Wisma 46 is a 46-floor office tower with a curved glass facade and square-patterned modules, rising 261.9 meters in the BNI City complex on Jalan Jenderal Sudirman. Its top floor sits at 200 meters, and a 10-meter antenna spire extends above the roof. Hollow concrete walls with square openings flank the glass sides.
Completed in 1996, the tower held the title of Indonesia's tallest building for two decades before another structure surpassed it in 2016. This period reflected the country's strong economic expansion and urban development.
The tower's distinctive pen-shaped silhouette has made it a familiar landmark that locals and visitors use to navigate Jakarta's skyline. Its form reflects the city's approach to modern design and corporate identity.
Wisma 46 stands on Jalan Jenderal Sudirman within the 15-hectare BNI City complex in Central Jakarta. The tower has 46 office floors above ground and two basement levels used for car parking. Its 24 elevators are split into lower, middle and upper shafts, including six high-speed cars running at 360 mpm. Banks, cafés and restaurants occupy the first two floors.
Wisma 46 appears in the 2004 video game Need for Speed: Underground 2, set in the fictional Bayview City Centre, and on the front cover of Elizabeth Pisani's book Indonesia Etc: Exploring the Improbable Nation. Its 10 m antenna spire brings the architectural height to 261.9 m.
