Sevilla Tower
Torre Sevilla, 41092 Sevilla
Glass-clad skyscraper whose height once triggered a UNESCO World Heritage threat.
This guide to Sevilla Tower in Seville centers on a 2011 clash: UNESCO inspectors, alarmed by the glass tower rising toward 180 meters near the 97-meter Giralda, demanded the crane stop and the design change or risk the cathedral quarter's World Heritage status. It follows the developer Cajasol's pushback over the real distance to the cathedral, the mayor's threat to pull the building permit, and a newspaper poll on how residents felt about the jobs at stake.
