IEC Tower

IEC Tower, Office skyscraper in Haifa, Israel

IEC Tower is a 130-metre, 30-floor office skyscraper in southern Haifa, near the MATAM business park and the Tirat Carmel border. Its profile consists of two tapered segments forming an elliptical, aerodynamic shape that emphasises the axis between Mount Carmel and the sea. A seven-storey entrance atrium and three four-storey secondary atria bring natural light into the H-shaped floor plates, and a glass arcade and roof lead from the parking forecourt into the building.

Construction of the IEC Tower began in 2000 and the building was occupied in 2003, when it became the headquarters of the Israel Electric Corporation after the company moved its head office from Tel Aviv. At completion it was the 9th tallest building in Israel; by the time of the source it ranked 77th.

The tower's H-shaped floor plan places two service wings around a central space with a seven-storey entrance atrium and three smaller four-storey atriums, bringing daylight into the offices. Its profile is formed by two tapered segments that together make an elliptical shape, aligned along the hill-to-sea axis. The roof and surrounding grounds were planned as a green fifth facade seen from the Carmel.

The building sits in the MATAM business district and is accessible by public transportation. Interior access is typically limited to visitors with business appointments.

The tower's roof height makes it Haifa's tallest building by that measure, overtaking the Sail Tower, even though the Sail Tower is taller overall. It was Israel's ninth-tallest building when completed in 2003 and has since dropped to 77th.
