[6] The skyscraper's concept aimed the creation of an iconic landmark for Monterrey, as it is the first building to exceed 200 meters in height in the central area of the city.

[7] The skyscraper was designed by Mexican architect Agustín Landa Vértiz with the main aim being to help with the regeneration of the city centre, as in recent years the area lacked investment and urban furniture development.

[8] The purpose of the project was the development of a complex to house offices or businesses with a Hotel and Convention Centre to attract investment back to the area.

In that year, during the administration of Mayor Ricardo Canavati Tafich, the city of Monterrey ceded the 10,000 square meter land and spent 50 million pesos to compensate tenants who were relocated for the development of this project.

[13] The original project was replaced by one that consisted of the construction of a complex where the Mercado Colón was previously located on Constitución and Melchor Ocampo Avenues and that was demolished at the beginning of this project, was expected to be composed of two towers, the tallest of 208 meters that would house the offices and a corporate with a total of 50 floors and another tower of 170 meters that would have 42 floors and would be occupied by a hotel, and that would also be complemented with a Convention Center with a capacity of 3,000 people, an underground parking lot for 2,950 cars.

[10] In April 2012, the foundation of the complex began, but now with an investment of 2 billion pesos; the project director José Lobatón reported in the presentation that it was expected to be completed by December 2013 and will enter into operation in 2014.
