Tekfen Tower, Commercial skyscraper in Levent, Turkey
Tekfen Tower is a commercial office building with 28 floors located in Levent, Istanbul's financial district. The structure rises prominently above surrounding buildings and provides extensive workspace organized across multiple levels.
Tekfen Tower was completed in 2002 and marked the beginning of a new wave of high-rise construction in Istanbul's business sector. This project was among the first major office towers built during that period in this zone.
The architectural design by Swanke Hayden Connell Architects reflects the transformation of Istanbul into a modern global financial center through vertical development.
The building sits on Büyükdere Street, a major thoroughfare in the financial district, making it easy to reach by public transportation. Accessibility is well organized, with multiple entrances and underground parking available for visitors.
The building was designed with special construction methods to withstand the earthquake forces that occur in Istanbul's geologically active region. These technical features are built into the structure's modern design and not immediately visible from outside.
