Edificio Interbank

The Interbank Building is a building located in the neighbourhood of Santa Catalina, La Victoria District, Lima. It serves as the main headquarters of Interbank, a Peruvian financial entity and was inaugurated in February 2001. It is located at the intersection of Luis Bedoya Reyes and Javier Prado Este avenues. It has a total construction area of 45,300 m and a maximum height of 88 metres. The building's predecessor was located at the Plazoleta de la Merced in the Jirón de la Unión. The construction was in charge of the Peruvian company Cosapi S.A. and the design by the Austrian architect Hans Hollein. This marked the end of a period of inactivity for the architect since the 1980s. This building was inaugurated at the same time as the Media Tower in Vienna. Both projects were designed in parallel. The construction period was between 1996 and 2000.
