Achmeatoren, Office tower in Leeuwarden, Netherlands.
The Achmeatoren reaches 115 meters with 26 floors covered in black and grey granite panels over a steel and glass foundation.
Architects Abe Bonnema and Jan van der Leij completed this modern structure in 2002, replacing nineteenth-century buildings in the insurance district.
The tower houses multiple corporations and includes a tourist information center that connects visitors to local Frisian culture and attractions.
Four high-speed elevators transport people at six meters per second throughout the building, making vertical transportation efficient for office workers.
The top floor features an observation space offering views across Friesland province, visible up to 40 kilometers on clear days.
