Residencial del Bosque 1, High-rise residential tower in Polanco, Mexico City.
Residencial del Bosque 1 is a modern residential tower in Polanco with a glass and concrete exterior that forms part of a twin tower development. The structure spans 30 floors and houses residential units designed for contemporary urban living in Mexico City.
The building was completed in 1996 by Argentine architect Cesar Pelli during a period of major vertical expansion in Mexico City. This tower represents the urban transformation that reshaped the city's skyline in that decade.
The building earned the nickname 'Coruscant' among locals due to its architectural design reminiscent of structures from the Star Wars universe.
Visitors can explore the surrounding neighborhood which features other modern buildings and urban spaces integrated into the area. The best time to visit is during daytime when natural light highlights the facade and surrounding architecture.
The structure was built with advanced seismic damping systems designed to protect residents during earthquakes. These engineering solutions are essential features for tall buildings in Mexico City and reflect the demands of urban construction in this tectonically active zone.
