Istanbul Sapphire is a residential skyscraper located in Levent, Istanbul's central business district, designed by Tabanlıoğlu Architects and completed in 2010. Rising 261 meters in overall structural height—including its architectural spire—the 54-story tower was Istanbul's and Turkey's tallest building between 2010 and 2016, and ranked as Europe's fourth-tallest upon completion. A mixed-use development combining shopping and luxury residences and managed by Kiler GYO, it earned distinction as Turkey's first ecological skyscraper. Though surpassed by taller structures in subsequent years, Istanbul Sapphire remains among the city's most prominent towers.
