List of tallest buildings in Istanbul

(Redirected from Soyak Tower)

Istanbul is one of the largest cities in Turkey, and is the country's economic and social center. As of October 2020, the city is home to 47 skyscrapers (buildings at least 150 m (490 ft) tall), which is the most in Europe,[1] as well as hundreds of high-rises.

Levent, one of the city's three main business districts together with Maslak and Ataşehir.

The tallest buildings in the city are the Skyland İstanbul complex,[2][3][4] located in the Sarıyer district, with both the office tower and the residence tower reaching 284 metres. The buildings stand as the eleventh-tallest in Europe, and the third-tallest outside Russia, after Varso in Warsaw, Poland, and The Shard in London, United Kingdom.

Istanbul's first skyscraper is considered to be the 25-storey Harbiye Orduevi, built in 1968, and standing 90 m (300 ft) tall.[5] The first building to surpass 100 meters is the Maya Tower, built in 1992, with a height of 110 m (360 ft).[6] The city saw a major boom in skyscrapers in the 21st century, situated mostly, but not only, in Levent, Maslak and Ataşehir.

The tallest structures in the city however, are the two towers of the Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge, standing at 322 m (1,056 ft).
