Grosspeter Tower, High-rise building in Basel, Switzerland
Grosspeter Tower is a modern high-rise in Basel with 21 floors and a glass facade. The building houses office spaces on some levels and a hotel section alongside, sharing common entrance areas.
The tower was completed in 2017 as part of Basel's strategy to develop modern business spaces. Its construction marked a shift toward mixed-use high-rises in the city's commercial districts.
The tower integrates Swiss precision engineering with environmental responsibility through its solar power generation systems and sustainable construction methods.
The building has a shared ground floor entrance where visitors can access the hotel or office sections. It is located centrally in Basel and easily reached by public transportation.
The tower's facade is equipped with solar panels that power the building with renewable energy. This system makes the structure a notable example of sustainable design in a contemporary urban setting.
