Tour Postel 2001

Tour Postel 2001 rises 105 meters into the sky with 26 floors, featuring a tubular profile and mirrored brise-soleil windows along its facade.

Ivorian-Lebanese architect Pierre Fakhoury designed this office tower, which opened in 1984 to house four government ministries in Abidjan.

The building represents the architectural development of West Africa during the 1980s through its functionalist design principles and structural elements.

Located on Rue Jesse Owens in the central business district, the tower underwent a complete renovation in 2017 to modernize its facilities.

The original pink curtain wall glass that covered the building reflected the sky until modifications during the 2017 renovation changed its appearance.
