The triangular, all-glass tower located in the city’s 15th arrondissement topped out at 42 stories on April 24, 2026. The project’s progress was marked by opposition, financial roadblocks, and legal disputes before construction began in 2022 . The 180-meter tower is now the third-tallest building within Paris city limits , behind the 330-meter-tall Eiffel Tower , the 231-meter-tall The Link in La Défense , and the 210-meter-tall Tour Montparnasse . The building will retain this title indefinitely due to a skyscraper ban reinstated in 2023 by Mayor Anne Hidalgo , following persistent opposition to tall buildings in the city. The recent progress was documented by photographer Stefano Candito , ranging from an urban view of the building to a close-up look at its nearly completed structure.

Image © Stefano Candito Tour Triangle, designed by Herzog & de Meuron in collaboration with Valode & Pistre , is located on the Place de la Porte de Versailles, at the southern edge of the 15th arrondissement, at the edge of Paris’s ring road. The neighbourhood is shaped mainly by middle-class Parisian residential fabric, Haussmann-era buildings, and small businesses, an “urban infrastructure zone” aimed to be regenerated through this mixed-use project and the ongoing renovation of the Paris Expo exhibition and conference centre. Wider at the base due to its trapezoidal shape, the Tour’s ground level is open to the public: with a daycare centre, a health centre, a cultural centre, restaurants, cafés, and shops, it’s designed for pedestrian circulation. A hotel, offices, a restaurant, and a panoramic belvedere are situated on the top four floors of the tower’s publicly accessible peak. The building reads at a metropolitan scale. According to the architects, the triangular form responds to its context by reducing the projection of shadows onto neighbourin
