Demolished or destroyed.

The Glass Tower in Arak, Iran, was a government building in the Qajar architectural style, constructed of brick, tile, and mortar. Once recognized as part of Iran's national heritage, the structure has been destroyed. Little remains documented about its original function or architectural significance beyond its classification as a cultural property and its stylistic attribution to the Qajar period, when such decorative tilework and brick construction were hallmarks of Persian governmental architecture.
