Lamda Development has broken ground with piling work underway at the The Riviera Tower in Elliniko-Argyroupoli, a municipality in the South Athens regional unit, Attica. It is set to be Greece‘s tallest building and completed by March 2026. The 198-meter Riviera Tower is just one aspect of The Ellinikon, a 6.2-million-square-meter master-planned urban regeneration project that aims to double the green space in the Athens Metropolitan Area. It is proposed to be a 15-minute city that will deliver residential, commercial, leisure, retail, dining, entertainment, and other offerings. 

Designed by Foster + Partners, The Riviera Tower will feature one-to-five-bedroom residences and penthouses, offering residents expansive views with direct access to the beach and marina.
