State Bank Tower

The State Bank Tower is a high-rise building in the capital city of Mauritius, Port Louis.

The 16-storey tower contrary to popular belief, is not the tallest building in Port Louis.

It is the fourth tallest building and only steel frame skeleton high-rise on the island.

In February 1994, it was damaged by cyclone Hollanda which hit Mauritius with windspeeds of over 200 km/h when the building's construction tower crane smashed and tore on the high-rise.

The 82 m tall tower, hosting mostly offices, was finally inaugurated in 1995.
