The tower was designed by the Mexican firm Sordo Madaleno Arquitectos and is located in the Zapopan district of Guadalajara. It is part of an urban developmental plan elaborated in 2009 in order to create a new center for the Puerta de Hierro neighborhood. The original project also provided the construction of a shopping mall, a hotel and luxury apartment buildings with a total of 70,000 m2 (753,000 sq ft) of usable area.[3]
The tower provides a visual and spatial setting for the interior street of Paseo Andares Boulevard, a road designed to accommodate the various functions of the complex and align with the city's urban layout. The structure goes up to a height of 41 stories from the street. The first level includes a public plaza with trees that is linked to the interior street and serves as a connector for the motor lobby. The building houses a total of 225 rentable apartment units.[4]
The tower is split into sections: the hotel is located on the bottom 12 floors while the residential apartments are on the upper 28 floors, each having its own amenities. Floor 13 is designated for the exchange of services and facilities utilized by both types of use.[3]
