Torre Altus
Record: 195 m
Torre Altus is one of the tallest skyscrapers in Mexico City, Mexico. It is a residential condominium tower located on Paseo de los Laureles y Alcanfores in the Bosques de las Lomas district of the Miguel Hidalgo borough in the city. Bosques de las Lomas is one of the more exclusive residential and commercial districts in Latin America.
Construction began in 1994 and was completed in 1998. The building was designed by architects Augusto H. Álvarez and José Adolfo Wiechers, principals of the firm Álvarez y Wiechers.
When it was completed, it became the 3rd-tallest building in Mexico City. Currently, it is the 5th-tallest building, and is expected to fall to the 9th-tallest building after the completion of skyscrapers currently under construction in the city.
Torre Altus is part of a series of new skyscrapers in Mexico City built from the mid-1990s through 2010s, along with Torre Mayor, Torre Reforma Axtel, and the Arcos Bosques complex with the residential Torre Arcos Bosques I and Torre Arcos Bosques II.
