Moscow Octod Tower, Television tower in Khoroshevo-Mnyovniki district, Russia

The Moscow Octod Tower is a television tower in western Moscow with a distinctive octagonal steel framework. It functions as a broadcast facility transmitting radio and television signals across the Moscow metropolitan area.

The tower was built between 2004 and 2006 at the site of the former October Radio Center in Moscow. Construction marked the continuation of broadcasting history at this location.

The tower represents modern Russian engineering through its octagonal steel lattice design. Its form reflects the technological standards of the early 2000s.

The tower is located on Demyana Bednogo Street and is visible from outside for viewing. The surrounding area is accessible, though visitors can only view the structure from a distance.

The upper sections were positioned using a heavy-lift helicopter, an unusual method for assembling such a large structure. This approach shows how engineering teams solved assembly challenges for this broadcast facility.

Inception: 2006
