The tower's design and construction exemplified a visionary approach to post-war modernism in Genoa: the skyscraper was built and enveloped completely in metal, a feat that had been technologically and structurally unimaginable for the Italian construction sector before this.

The tower's design and construction exemplified a visionary approach to post-war modernism in Genoa: the skyscraper was built and enveloped completely in metal, a feat that had been technologically and structurally unimaginable for the Italian construction sector before this. Prefabricated metal components were combined, welded, or screwed into groups to create three levels. The ground level is recessed from the street facades. Smoky green glass facades on every side are topped at an angle with metal cladding.
The skyscraper, renovated in the early 2000s, is home to associations and businesses. Since 2005, it has housed the Genoa headquarters of Confindustria, which occupies three floors of the building. Since 2022, it has also housed the offices of Italian Labor Union (UIL) Liguria. The tower has an official height of 105 metres and rises to 26 floors + 2 underground floors.
