建筑位于Jana Pawla II大街与Chmielna街的拐角处，高耸的姿态成为了全新华沙广场的门户，并将人们的视线从高塔引导至场地西端与邻近建筑相连的公共广场。项目的社交中心坐落在一处由玻璃幕墙围合起来的室内广场中，生机勃勃的室内树木与舒适的长凳为人们提供了享受周围环境的“城市大厅”。同时这座“城市大厅”也成为了大楼办公区与城市公共空间的连接点，午休的工作人员们既可以在此静坐休息，也可以由大厅去往周围的商店和餐厅。
Situated at the corner of Jana Pawla II and Chmielna Street, the tower forms a gateway to the new development and draws people through the building towards the public plaza on its western end that connects to the neighbouring buildings. The social heart of the project is a plaza enclosed within a glazed screen, animated with full height trees and benches for people to enjoy the surroundings. This ‘urban room’ forms the point of seamless connection between people who work in the offices – who may use it as a sit-out during breaks – and the public, to access the shops and restaurants in the neighbouring buildings.

公共空间由底层大厅一直延伸至塔顶，两部全景电梯从地面直通向坐落于53层的观景台。“53层”是目前波兰境内最高的可居住楼层，在这里人们可以一览城市的壮阔全景。此外，位于49层的全景露台酒吧也即将落成，露台上种植了16棵树木，将打破华沙最高花园的记录。
The public realm continues at the top of the tower, accessed directly from the ground via two panoramic lifts, with a viewing platform at level 53. This is the highest inhabited floor in Poland with uninterrupted views of the city. Level 49 will soon offer a fully landscaped terrace bar, with sixteen trees, breaking the record for Warsaw’s highest garden.

办公区内设有两排大容量双层电梯，每部电梯可同时服务两个层楼。塔内坐拥将近7万平方米的优质办公空间，大跨度楼板以及3米的净高将为办公区创造出开放流动的室内氛围。该建筑获得了BREEAM杰出评级以及WELL金级认证，其中具有极佳建筑表现的三层玻璃立面功不可没。
The offices are served by two banks of high-capacity double-deck lifts, with each car serving two floors at any one time. With 70,000 square-metres of premium office space, the tower features large-span floorplates with three-metre clear height for open plan offices. The building achieves BREEAM Outstanding and WELL Gold certification, due in part to its triple-glazed façades.
