Riječki neboder, Modernist skyscraper in Rijeka, Croatia.
The Rijeka Skyscraper stands 53 meters tall at Trpimirova Street, featuring a twelve-floor tower combined with a six-floor section covered in ceramic tiles.
Construction of this residential-business building occurred between 1939 and 1942, commissioned by Marco de Albori upon his return from America to his hometown.
The structure exhibits Milanese architectural influence through its ground floor glass zone with canopy, marking a departure from traditional Rijeka building styles.
The building contains commercial spaces on the ground and first floors, with residential apartments occupying the upper levels and a single large apartment on floor six.
The site of the skyscraper reveals a Roman necropolis underneath, while its commissioner reportedly accumulated wealth through business connections during American Prohibition.
