Obsidier Tower is a new development in the New Administrative Capital of Egypt. This tower is set to be the tallest building in Africa, standing at a height of 385 meters. The tower is designed by the renowned architectural firm, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM).
The Obsidier Tower is a mixed-use development that will include residential, commercial, and office spaces. The tower will have 60 floors, with the top floors being dedicated to luxury apartments. The tower will also have a hotel, restaurants, and retail spaces.
The design of the Obsidier Tower is inspired by the ancient Egyptian obelisks. The tower will have a triangular shape, with a tapering form that narrows as it rises. The tower will be clad in a black glass facade, which will give it a sleek and modern look.
The tower will be located in the heart of the New Administrative Capital, which is a new city being built to alleviate the congestion in Cairo. The New Administrative Capital is a planned city that will be home to government offices, embassies, and residential areas. The city is being built on a 170,000-acre site, and it is expected to be completed by 2022.
