Esentai Tower, Modern skyscraper in Almaty, Kazakhstan
The 168-meter tall Esentai Tower features glass and steel construction with 38 floors rising above the surrounding urban landscape of Almaty.
The construction of Esentai Tower in 2008 marked a new era of architectural development in Kazakhstan's former capital city, Almaty.
The tower represents a shift in Kazakh urban design, combining international architectural principles with local business requirements in a mixed-use development.
The building contains offices, retail spaces, and commercial facilities, with direct access to major transportation routes in central Almaty.
Skidmore Owings Merrill implemented specific structural solutions to address local seismic conditions while maintaining the tower's modern aesthetic.
