This is a 15 storey office tower currently being executed in collaboration with SAOTA, and is scheduled for completion in June 2017. Kingsway Tower lends its name from its prime and fast rising commercial precinct of Kingsway Road Ikoyi. The project is being developed on a site of about 5,000sqm and is expected to deliver approximately 13,317sqm of lettable office space complemented with 337No car parking, lettable retail spaces, and an outdoor restaurant. The Building which was designed as an oval tower on rectangular podium has a north /south orientation to minimise the solar load and is effectively shaded with feature screens and planters to limit the amount of direct sun on it. Kingsway Tower's coffered podium slab curves up towards the corner to create a befitting Kingly and grandeur entrance that awes while welcoming, even the most creative.
