Parque Central Complex, Building complex in El Conde, Caracas, Venezuela.
The Parque Central Complex spans ten hectares with twin towers reaching 225 meters high and includes residential, commercial, and cultural spaces.
Construction began in 1970 with residential buildings, followed by the west tower in 1979 and east tower in 1983, engineered by Henrique Siso Maury.
