Tour First, Office skyscraper in La Défense, France.
Tour First measures 231 meters in height and contains 56 floors above ground, making it the tallest building in France beside the Eiffel Tower.
The structure opened in 1974 as Tour UAP, underwent major renovations from 2007 to 2011, and received its current name after completion of construction work.
The original three-pointed star design of the building represented the merger of three French insurance companies that formed the UAP corporation.
The building contains 28 elevators serving all floors, with three underground levels and a total floor space of 86,707 square meters for office activities.
Architect Pierre Dufau designed the tower with branches separated by 120-degree angles, creating a distinct geometric pattern visible from multiple viewpoints.
