Postbank-Hochhaus, Office building in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Germany.

The 89-meter-tall Postbank-Hochhaus building features an aluminum and glass facade with 23 floors constructed using reinforced concrete and steel materials.

Built between 1965 and 1971, the Postbank-Hochhaus served as the central postal check office for West Berlin during the city's divided period.

The International Style architecture of Postbank-Hochhaus follows design principles similar to Mies van der Rohe's Seagram Building in New York City.

The building sits at the intersection of Hallesches Ufer and Großbeerenstraße, currently undergoing renovation as part of the Die Macherei Berlin-Kreuzberg development project.

The structure includes a large fountain installation consisting of 18 bronze columns, installed in 1972, marking the entrance to the building complex.
