Westpoint Tower is the tallest residential building in Tilburg, Netherlands, completed in 2004 and standing 141.6 metres across 48 floors. Designed by Margriet Eugelink of Van Aken Architektuur, the modern structure features a distinctive grid facade composed of vertical and horizontal concrete elements painted in varied colours on its front and rear elevations. At the time of its completion, it held the distinction of being the Netherlands' highest residential building, a title it retained until 2010 when surpassed by Rotterdam's New Orleans skyscraper. The tower's visual impact extends into evening hours, when coloured lighting illuminates the facade.
