[2] The tower was designed by architects Uglješa Bogunović and Slobodan Janjić, and engineer Milan Krstić.
Previously the power supply to the station was destroyed, but a senior military officer installed a backup generator.
The idea of the tower's reconstruction at the same place it was destroyed originated from the Journalists' Association of Serbia in October 2002.
In the early 2004, Radio Television Serbia (RTS) joined in with the media promotion of the project and commenced a series of fund-raising events in order to collect money for the construction.
The project was endorsed and supported by numerous media, painters, writers, actors, musicians, athletes and businessmen.
Ceca Ražnatović (a Serbian folk singer) held a concert on 15 June 2006, with all the proceeds going to the Avala Tower fund.
According to a December 2006 report, when it was announced that the construction of a new Avala Tower would commence that same month, over €1 million was collected through fund-raising and donations.
[9] By August 2017, 105 cement prints of the people who helped the reconstruction were displayed, including those of tennis players Novak Djokovic and Ana Ivanovic and a new lift, for the parents with children and the disabled, have been constructed.
[3] In 2018 the children area at the base was expanded with the elf village, consisting of houses connected by a small bridge.
