The Breda Tower (Italian: Torre Breda) is a 30-storey, 117 m (384 ft) skyscraper in Milan, Italy. The tower was built in 1954 on a design by architects Eugenio and Ermenegildo Soncini, with Luigi Mattioni.[4] The eight floors of the lower body are devoted exclusively to offices, while the rest of the building houses residential apartments. The building is currently under restyling.
Tower in 1959
Torre Breda was the highest building in Italy when constructed, until 1960 when the 127 m (417 ft) Pirelli Tower was completed. It is now the fifth tallest building in Milan and the 13th in Italy.

^The tower was designed by Eugenio and Ermenegildo Soncini with Luigi Mattioni. The architects are mentioned in this order in the paper written by Mattioni (Il grattacielo di Milano) in Edilizia Moderna, n. 56. Unfortunately, thereafter many publications erroneously placed them in alphabetical order or attributed the work to Mattioni alone.
