The Chicago-based Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat has chosen Tel Aviv’s two-year-old ToHa skyscraper as the overall winner in the office building category of its 18th annual awards program.

ToHa is located at the intersection of Derech Hashalom, Yigal Allon and Totzeret Haaretz streets.

Tower 1 of two planned towers, completed early in 2019, has 28 floors. It was designed by Israeli artist/architect Ron Arad of London, who worked with local architect Avner Yashar, in the shape of an iceberg, the architect said. The atrium of the building is configured as a large, seven-story-high main lobby space that continues upward, culminating in a generous skylight on the public roof.

In May 2019, ToHa Tower 1 obtained LEED Platinum certification.
