Steglitzer Kreisel

The Steglitzer Kreisel also known as the ÜBerlin Tower is a high-rise residential building in the Steglitz district of Berlin, Germany. Originally built between 1968 and 1980, the building stands at 118.5 m (389 ft) tall with 32 floors and is located in the southern area of Schloßstraße diagonally opposite the Steglitz Town Hall. The main part of the complex is a 120 m high former administration building with 30 floors, one of the highest skyscrapers in Berlin, which housed the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district office until the end of 2007 and which has been empty since then. The base building also houses a BVG bus station with access to the Rathaus Steglitz subway station, a hotel and numerous shops; a parking garage adjoins it. The building is being converted into a residential high-rise as of 2015.
