Tour Pleyel, Mixed-use skyscraper in Saint-Denis, France.

The Tour Pleyel rises 143 meters into the sky with 37 floors of glass and concrete, forming a vertical silhouette against the northern Paris skyline.

Constructed in 1973 at the former site of Pleyel et Cie factories, the tower stands as the only completed structure from an initial plan for four identical buildings.

The building represents the architectural transformation of Saint-Denis from an industrial suburb into a modern business district during the 1970s urban development phase.

Located near the Carrefour Pleyel Metro station on Line 13, the tower contains both residential apartments and commercial offices spread across its multiple levels.

The structure features a large rotating advertising sign at its summit, which has displayed different corporate logos including Philips, Siemens, and Kia Motors since 1997.
