State Tower, Mixed-use skyscraper in Bang Rak district, Thailand.
State Tower is a 68-story high-rise that rises 247 meters and houses residential units, office spaces, hotels, and dining venues. The building stands on Silom Road and defines the commercial heart of Bangkok with its distinctive form.
The tower was completed in 2001 as Thailand rebuilt its economy following the 1997 financial crisis. The project marked the start of a new phase of urban growth in Bangkok.
The building displays contemporary Western architecture while incorporating subtle local design elements throughout its interior spaces. Visitors encounter a mix of international and Thai businesses operating within its multiple levels.
The building is easily accessible by public transportation and sits within walking distance of commercial areas and other facilities. Visitors should note that not all areas are open to the public and access varies depending on the time of day.
The building features a public observation point where visitors can enjoy views of the Chao Phraya River and the surrounding urban landscape. From this vantage point, the scale of the metropolis becomes particularly apparent.
