The Federation Tower is a skyscraper complex currently under construction in Moscow, Russia and is designed to be both the tallest building in Europe as well as Europe's first "supertall" building. The Federation Tower complex is divided into two towers:
  • East Tower (A), designed to be over 506 meters (1,660 feet) to the tip of the spire. 93 stories and 360 meters (1,181 feet) tall by roof.
:Construction Progress:
::Core - 32nd level
::Floorplates - 32nd level
  • West Tower (B), designed to be 62 stories and 242 meters (795 feet) tall.
:Construction Progress:
::Topped out


Construction of the towers began in 2003 and is slated for completion in 2008.

The complex, designed by the German firm NPS Tchoban Voss, is being developed by Mirax Construction and is owned by the Mirax Group. The construction company for the East Tower is the China State Construction Engineering Corporation, while the construction company for the West Tower is Turkish Ant Yapi.

Several floors of both towers will be utilized by the Global Hyatt Corporation. Bank VTB has opened a US$ 250 million credit line for the construction of the towers and has bought 33 office floors. Total construction cost for the complex is estimated to be over US$ 530 million.

The spire soaring up to over 506 meters (1,660 ft), will have a 360° view out its elevators which will move as quickly as 18 m/s (40 mph).

Bridges between Eastern and Western towers will contain restaurants and cafés.
