Platinum Tower, Beirut

Platinum Tower stands as a prominent landmark in Beirut, distinguishing itself as the tallest residential building in the city with a height of 153 meters. This modern high-rise is strategically located on a large plot along the Saint George Bay Marina and is anticipated to connect directly to the marina via a pedestrian bridge in the future.

The tower's notable height makes it a striking feature of Beirut's skyline, although it will soon be surpassed by the Sama Beirut Tower, which is under construction in the Achrafieh district and will reach a height of 195 meters. Platinum Tower’s prestigious position on the seafront has solidified its status as a central and iconic figure in the cityscape.

Situated in a luxurious neighborhood, Platinum Tower is surrounded by several high-end hotels, including the InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut Hotel, the Monroe Hotel, Le Vendôme Intercontinental Hotel, the Grand Hyatt, and the Four Seasons Hotel. The area is also rich in cultural and historical sites such as the Rafik Hariri memorial, Saint Elias Cathedral, the Corniche Beirut, All Saints Church, Beirut International Exhibition & Leisure Center, and the historic, bullet-riddled Holiday Inn Hotel—a reminder of Beirut's turbulent past during the civil war.

Architecturally, Platinum Tower comprises two distinct structures: a smaller one positioned closer to the sea and a lower one that overlooks the Beirut Central District. The design is accentuated at night by sophisticated lighting, which highlights the building's edges and top. Additionally, horizontal light lines are strategically placed on every ninth floor, enhancing its visibility and aesthetic appeal after sunset.
