The office tower at the eastern end of the former west port of Frankfurt, the Westhafen Tower, is also called the "Ribbed" (apple wine glass) by the people of Frankfurt because of its outer skin made of triangular glass panes.

Westhafen Tower/Tower (2004) - FFM 🚴‍♂️

The Westhafen Tower is a skyscraper in the Gutleutviertel district of Frankfurt am Main. The 112.3-meter-tall building was completed in 2004. The tower was one of the first buildings in the former Westhafen district and is now one of the most recognizable landmarks directly on the Main River. No other skyscraper is located so close to the water and offers such impressive views over the banking district, including Sachsenhausen, and the rest of the city. The Westhafen Tower houses, among other offices, the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA). The skyscraper is often referred to by Frankfurt residents as "the ribbed one" because its glass facade resembles the traditional apple wine glass of the same name.

DescriptionThe Westhafen Tower is a high-rise building in the Gutleutviertel district of Frankfurt am Main. The 112.3 meter high building was designed by the architectural firm Schneider + Schumacher and completed in 2004. The Westhafen Tower is one of the first buildings at the former Frankfurt Westhafen.
The first impression captivates: every view through the floor-to-ceiling glass front expands the perspective. With the breathtaking 360 ° view over the water, the skyline and the old town, every company in this building towers over the Main metropolis. Surrounded by this outstanding growth potential, WESTHAFEN TOWER offers one hundred percent views of the city and successful businesses. The WESTHAFEN TOWER includes two other buildings: the Westhafen bridge building and the Westhafen Haus. All three buildings are characterized by a timeless architectural language and encompass the spacious Westhafenplatz.
