The Iconic Tower in Egypt’s New Administrative Capital (NAC) completed construction of the concrete structure and finishing touches are now underway. 

It is one of 18 skyscrapers planned for NAC’s Central Business District. The 393.8-meter-high 77-story tower was designed by Dar and is being built by the contractor China State Construction Engineering Corporation. It integrates mixed-use spaces and has facilities for hospitality, commercial and residential functions.

The New Administrative Capital aims to alleviate Greater Cairo’s increasing densification and establish a new growth hub for future generations. Expected completion of the tower is in 2030.
