Tour Cristal, High-rise building in 15th arrondissement, Paris, France.

Tour Cristal reaches a height of 100 meters with 29 floors, featuring glass facades that reflect light across the Front de Seine district.

The building construction finished in 1990 after modifications to initial plans, which originally intended a 140-meter residential structure in 1972.

The design of Tour Cristal draws inspiration from light studies by painter Salvador Dalí, incorporating angular glass surfaces throughout its structure.

The building underwent major renovations between 2007 and 2010, adding geothermal wells for heating and cooling systems to increase energy efficiency.

The structure stands near Grenelle Bridge along the Seine River, with distinct cut-glass facades that distinguish it from other Front de Seine buildings.
