Punto Chapultepec, Skyscraper on Paseo de la Reforma, Mexico City, Mexico.
Chapultepec Uno R509, formerly Punto Chapultepec, is a 241.6-metre, 58-storey mixed-use tower at Paseo de la Reforma 509, on the corner of Río Ródano and immediately west of the Torre Mayor. Part of the building is occupied by the Ritz-Carlton hotel, which opened on 28 October 2021.
The building was developed after earlier ambitious plans were abandoned, with construction running from 2013 to 2019. Its completion reflected the evolution of this corridor as a mixed-use urban hub.
The tower's commercial name, Chapultepec Uno R 509, refers to its address at Paseo de la Reforma 509, on the corner of Río Ródano. The Ritz Carlton hotel inside opened on October 28, 2021, and the building was previously known as Punto Chapultepec.
The tower stands at the corner of Paseo de la Reforma and Río Ródano, immediately west of the Torre Mayor, so it is reached on foot from the Reforma sidewalk. The Ritz-Carlton hotel occupying part of the building opened on October 28, 2021. The site lies in the Cuauhtémoc borough, west of the city centre.
The site had two earlier towers, Torre Reforma 509 and Torre Reforma 506, which a 2005 remodeling project failed to replace. In 2009 Serrano Arquitectos planned a 303-metre, 69-floor skyscraper there, cancelled in 2010 in favour of the shorter tower that was built.
