At 44 stories, the skycraper stands at 166 meters in height and extends some distance into the lakebed and bedrock beneath the city. It was the tallest building in the city from 1956 until 1982 when the Pemex Tower opened.
It’s famous worldwide as the first skyscraper successfully built in a highly active seismic zone.
