Iris Tower, Office building in Brabant Quarter, Saint-Josse-ten-Noode, Belgium.
Iris Tower is a modern office building in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode with 32 floors and a height of 137 meters. The structure houses administrative offices and was built with contemporary materials and facade systems.
Construction began in 2018 following planning proposals from 2012 and was completed in November 2020. The project developed as a response to the need for consolidating multiple government departments into one modern building.
The tower serves as the central headquarters for the Brussels Regional Public Service, bringing together multiple administrative departments in one location.
The tower stands on Place Saint-Lazare beside the North-South railway junction, between the Covent Garden and Botanic Building, a short walk from Brussels-North station and the Botanic Garden site. Ten lifts and two staircases serve the 32 office floors above ground, with seven basement levels below.
The tower's name changed in November 2020 from Silver Tower to Iris Tower, taking the iris, the emblem of the Brussels-Capital Region. The building stands on Place Saint-Lazare between the Covent Garden and the Botanic Building, beside the North-South railway junction.
