Torre Rise
A construction project located in Monterrey.
A Bit About Torre Rise
Torre Rise will be the tallest building in Latin America when it tops out at 484 meters, dethroning Mexico City’s T.OP Tower 1 and pushing Monterrey’s skyline past 1,500 feet for the first time. As of early 2026 the tower sits around 300 meters and is rising under Mexican developer-architect Ancore Group’s in-house design team, led by Esteban Ramos.
Project Scope
The 88-story tower is mixed-use top to bottom. Ten floors of hotel sit above a podium of retail and parking. Forty floors of class-A office occupy the middle of the stack, with twenty floors of residential apartments above them. An observation deck, restaurant and cultural exhibition space cap the upper levels, and fourteen floors of structured parking sit in the base. Total program area runs to roughly three million square feet.
The site sits in the Obispado district between Constitución and Hidalgo avenues, on a parcel that puts the tower in immediate visual conversation with Cerro del Obispado and the existing T.OP Tower 1 a few blocks west. The two developers have been racing each other in the press for over a year as their respective heights have crept past one another; Torre Rise’s final mark will settle the dispute by a margin Mexico City can’t match.
Why It Matters
Torre Rise is a marker for Monterrey as much as it is a building. The city has been pulling industrial and corporate tenancy out of Mexico’s central-Mexico belt for the better part of a decade, and supertall office demand in Monterrey has historically been priced below what a 484-meter tower with this program would normally pencil to. The willingness to build into that gap is itself the bet.
Beyond the local economics, Torre Rise lands in the global top 15 by height. Of the few supertalls in the Western Hemisphere, only New York’s One World Trade Center stands taller. That puts Monterrey in a category usually reserved for Gulf and East-Asian capitals and changes how international architecture firms read the Mexican market.
For contractors and design teams watching the rest of Latin America’s tall-tower pipeline, Torre Rise also functions as a stress test of high-strength concrete supply, vertical-transport coordination and supertall MEP design outside the U.S. and Asia. The lessons will travel.
