The building next door, Union Tower, was built as Al Salam Tower but changed names when it was sold, so this tower took it over.
The most striking feature of the building design is the white diagonal spine that stretches from the ground to its apex at a height of 230m.
At this point, the two sides of the spine join to form a perfect square opening, at the centre of which suspends the 40m high needle, pushing the overall height of the tower to 250m.
The building services are accommodated on the 19th, 35th and 49th floor.
