The shell construction has been completed for the new headquarters of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (F.A.Z.) in Frankfurt's Europaviertel. UBM Development and PAULUS Immobiliengruppe are celebrated topping out the building at 18 floors exactly one year to day after laying the foundation stone.

The F.A.Z. Tower is being built in Frankfurt's Europaviertel district on 29,000 square meters of gross floor space with around 1,000 workplaces and 280 parking spaces. In keeping with the open-space concept, quiet zones for concentrated work as well as diverse conference, event, and co-working spaces are being created.

The design of the 66-meter-high building was developed together with Eike Becker Architekten. The two complexes form the gateway to Europa-Allee and the Europagarten. The office tower’s two slender segments are rotated on their axis and shifted against each other from halfway up the building.  

The office building is scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2022.
