Azrieli Sarona Tower, Commercial skyscraper in Sarona district, Tel Aviv, Israel.
The Azrieli Sarona Tower is a 238.5-metre office skyscraper on Begin Road in Tel Aviv, with 61 floors, 50 of them offices, above a three-level shopping centre. Its design uses diagonal lines: two masses are set at different angles to the centre, so the building looks slightly different from every viewpoint. The facade is a grid of silver-grey metal and glass with narrow rectangular bays.
In May 2011 the Azrieli Group won the 9.4-dunam plot from the Israel Land Administration for 522 million shekels, with a plan for a 180-metre tower. David Azrieli laid the cornerstone on 12 March 2012. In 2013 the district planning committee approved raising the height to 238.5 metres, and construction was completed in mid-2017.
The tower's base holds a three-level shopping centre that received its occupancy permit in November 2019, and a three-storey Nike store opened there in September 2022. Above it, tenants such as Amazon Israel, Facebook Israel, IronSource, Magic Leap, Dropbox and Booking signed leases for over 60% of the space by June 2016, before construction ended.
The tower stands on Begin Road in the Sarona area, with a seven-level underground garage holding 1,600 parking spaces; 500 of them are set aside for public use at rates no higher than municipal parking stations. The commercial centre occupies the first three floors, and the tower holds about 34 OTIS lifts reaching 9 metres per second.
Dedicated hotel floors within the tower operate with their own separate elevators and facilities. This arrangement allows the hotel to function independently from the office and retail operations above and below it.
