Apollo Tower, Residential tower in Ampelokipoi, Greece.

The Apollo Tower reaches a height of 80 meters with 25 floors, making it a notable part of the Athens skyline.

Construction of the Apollo Tower was completed in 1973 during a period when building height restrictions in Athens were temporarily suspended.

The building design skips the 13th floor designation, moving directly to the 14th floor to accommodate local beliefs about numbers.

The structure contains both residential units and medical offices, with proximity to the Ambelokipi and Panormou metro stations for transportation.

During earthquakes in 1981 and 1999, the tower maintained operations through generator power while other buildings experienced disruptions.
