The Roche Tower (Building 1, right side of my image) is the second tallest building in Switzerland. Completed in 2015, it has 41 floors and 3 basements. It is 178 m tall and designed for up to 2’400 employees.
The Roche Tower (Building 2, left side of my image) is the tallest building in Switzerland. Completed in 2022, it has 50 floors and 3 basements. It is 205 m tall and designed for up to 3’100 employees.
Tall buildings are few and far between in Switzerland, in large part due to strict regulations created by the Swiss government. In many cases, high-rise projects have to be approved by referendum in order to be built.
