Víztoronyház, Modern residential tower in District XV, Hungary.
The Víztoronyház rises twenty floors above Budapest, featuring water tanks in its upper section and two artist residences with studio spaces.
Architects Tibor Tenke and Endre Mentes designed this residential building, which opened in 1975 as part of Budapest's urban expansion initiatives.
The structure contains the Víztoronyház Art Studio gallery, where local artists display their works in a setting that combines residential and cultural functions.
The building originally supplied water to the Újpalota housing estate through massive tanks located above the eighteenth floor until 1985.
Current telecommunications equipment and transmission stations occupy the tower's summit, replacing the former neon advertisements from the 1980s.
