The Torre Latinoamericana (English: Latin American Tower) is a skyscraper in downtown Mexico City. Its central location, height (166 m (545 ft)), and history make it one of the city's most important landmarks.[2] It is widely recognized internationally as an engineering and architectural landmark since it was the world's first major skyscraper successfully built on highly active seismic zone.[dubious – discuss] The skyscraper notably withstood the 8.1 magnitude 1985 Mexico City earthquake without damage,[4] whereas several other structures in the downtown area were damaged.
The Torre Latinoamericana was Mexico's tallest completed building for almost 27 years,[2] from its opening in 1956 until 1982 when the 214 m (702 ft) tall Torre Ejecutiva Pemex was completed. Although the structure of the Hotel de México (now known as the WTC Mexico City) had already surpassed it a decade earlier, it wouldn't be finished until 1994.[5][6]
