Tour CGI, Office building in La Défense, France

The Tour CGI is a 27-story office tower in Courbevoie that rises 117 meters above the La Défense district. Its glass facade lets light pass through the building, creating a bright and open appearance among the surrounding high-rises.

The building was originally built in 1971 as Tour EDF-GDF and underwent major renovation in 2002. Additional updates followed in 2018 to keep the structure current with modern standards.

The tower reflects French architectural evolution through its transformation from concrete pillars to contemporary glass design principles.

The building is located in Courbevoie and is easily reached via the Esplanade de La Défense metro station. The surrounding area has plenty of shops and restaurants, making it convenient for visitors to explore the neighborhood.

The building's crown features illuminated glass panels that reveal the mechanical systems inside, creating a distinctive glow at night. This design choice makes the tower easy to spot in the La Défense skyline after dark.
