5 Cajasol Tower
#400, 5

The Cajasol Tower (Spanish: Torre Cajasol) is an office skyscraper under construction in Seville, Spain, that is being built under the masterplan of Puerto Triana. The tower started its construction in March 2008 and it is expected to be finished the first trimester of 2013. The tower will have a height of 180.5 metres (592 ft) and have 40 floors. The floors of the tower will have an office usage. The tower, built as Cajasol's headquarters, will be the tallest building in Andalusia and the city of Seville.
The tower will be built in La Cartuja, the former zone of the Universal Exposition that took place in Seville between April and October 1992, located next to the river that is being renewed since the early 2000s. There will be two commercial buildings designed by César Pelli flanking the skyscraper. The entrance to the tower will be located at the Odiel street.
It had been reported that UNESCO was considering putting the Seville's monuments which are classified as World Heritage Sites (the Cathedral, Alcazar and Archivo de Indias) into the "Threatened List", because of the tower's “negative visual impact” on the old town skyline of Seville.[1] However, these proposals were discarded in the UNESCO meeting of Saint Petersburg
