Offering the maximum view of the stunning adjacent Pyramids, Cairo, and the Nile, the structure boasts green features like water recollection systems, solar panels, and wind turbines. Designer Mohamed Abdel-Aziz shows all three towers playing a different role, the first tower houses only offices, the second one is a five star hotel while the third one has high-end residences. A seven floors podium makes the commercial area that includes restaurants, cinemas, and retail areas. In order to look into the inhabitants’ fitness and health care needs, the geo-sphere behaves like a health center with a Spa, swimming pools and other fitness areas.
