Tower Block

A Tower Block refers to a high-rise building, typically a residential structure with multiple floors, often designed to accommodate many families or individuals. These buildings are common in urban environments, especially in cities where space is limited. Tower blocks can be part of social housing initiatives, providing affordable accommodation, though they sometimes face criticism for issues like isolation, maintenance, and safety. In architecture, they represent a significant style of modernist design, prioritizing efficiency and functionality in densely populated areas. Good examples can be found in cities across Europe and beyond.
