Commerzbank Tower is a 56-story, 259-metre skyscraper completed in 1997 in Frankfurt's banking district, designed by Norman Foster of Foster & Partners. With its antenna spire, the tower reaches 300.1 metres, making it Germany's tallest building. Constructed between 1994 and 1997, the structure combines reinforced concrete, steel, glass, and aluminium to create 121,000 square metres of office space for Commerzbank's headquarters, featuring innovative winter gardens and natural lighting and air circulation systems. The tower stands among other major financial institutions in the Bankenviertel, including the Eurotower and Main Tower, and is distinguished at night by a distinctive yellow lighting scheme designed by Thomas Ende.
