The capital's tallest building was designed by Japanese architect Minoru Yamasaki, the creator of the Twin Towers in NYC. It's 157.25m tall, has 43 floors and a helipad on the roof. The entire building is controlled by an 'intelligent' computer system and the aluminium façade has been specially treated with fluorine. It's located in the AZCA complex, a financial district designed to imitate New York's 'Wall Street' or London's 'The City'.
