World's Tallest Residential Building Set To Be Built In Brazil Named After 90s F1 Legend

Designs have been unveiled for the world’s tallest residential building. The Senna Tower, which is primed for construction in the city of Balneário Camboriú in southern Brazil, will honour Formula One legend Ayrton Senna. The building could reach a height of 500 metres if constructed, surpassing New York City's Central Park Tower, the current tallest residential skyscraper, by 18 metres. Designed by Senna’s niece, visual artist Lalalli, and developed by FG Empreendimentos, the project is projected to cost £415 million. One of the greatest drivers to have ever raced in Formula One, Senna wowed fans with his scintillating speed on-track which saw him win three world championships throughout his time at McLaren before he moved to Williams in 1994. Tragically, in his first season with his new team, he died after a high-speed crash at that year's San Marino Grand Prix. Approved by Brazil’s government and environmental agencies, the tower will feature 204 apartments, 18 suspended mansions, four duplex penthouses, and two triplex mega penthouses.
