Such a location could hardly be more centrally situated. Prime Tower has its own rapid transit railway station – Hardbrücke – almost at the front door. Trains run at three- to five-minute intervals. Zurich’s main railway station for Intercity and mainline connections is just 2 minutes away, and the airport can be reached in 12 minutes. The site also has a direct link to the motorway access road to the A1 expressway and the west junction for north- and south-bound traffic

The octagon-shaped Prime Tower is the project unanimously chosen as the winner of an international competition involving top-ranking architects. The decision that came out in favour of the Zurich architect team Gigon/Guyer was influenced among other things by the “crystalline exterior that stands apart from its neighbours, the fine movements and projections, the many uses of the large ground plan and the static design with the pre-stressed ceiling”.

Together with the Cubus and Diagonal annex buildings, Prime Tower forms an architectural entity and all-embracing complex. With its heterogeneous mix of office and business world, cultural life and gastronomy, it represents an exact replica of the dynamic Zurich West district.

Representatives of a wide variety of social strata and cultures merge here, wether in the large staff restaurant, the lifestyle lounge, the gourmet palace 120 metres above the city, or in the studios, salesrooms and event centres. It is the site where historic buildings unite into surprisingly harmonious combinations with modern glass architecture
