Opera Tower, Contemporary tower in Allenby Street, Tel Aviv, Israel

Opera Tower is a contemporary structure with 23 floors rising 82 meters, featuring an L-shaped design with stepped levels. Inside, the building houses residential apartments, commercial spaces, and a rooftop swimming pool that overlooks the Mediterranean Sea.

The structure was completed in 1993, occupying the site of the former Tel Aviv Opera House that operated from 1958 to 1982. Its construction marked a shift from a dedicated cultural venue to a mixed-use development on the same location.

The tower's name comes from the Israeli Opera, which occupied the cinema building on this site from 21 May 1958 until 1982; the square is still popularly called Opera Square. The pointed arches of the lower three floors echo the facade of the Kessem Cinema, designed by architect Yosef Neufeld, which stood here until its demolition in 1988.

The tower sits on Allenby Street, a central location that is easy to reach with good public transport connections. Visitors can explore the common areas or enjoy the views from the rooftop pool, depending on access availability.

The facade color was disputed: Avraham Yasky wanted pink, inspired by buildings for the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, while Yossi Sivan preferred blue. Developer Alfred Akirov chose pink. By 2017, sea-air corrosion had weakened the marble panels, some of which collapsed, so the tower was re-clad in white and blue aluminum.
