Alcalá de Henares prepares for its first residential skyscraper: a new urban horizon

A new symbol for Alcalá de Henares

The city of Alcalá de Henares, known for its rich history and cultural heritage, is about to take a leap into the future with the construction of its first residential skyscraper. This ambitious project, which will consist of 28 floors, will not only transform the local skyline but also offer more than 300 rental homes, catering to the diverse needs of its future tenants.

Driven by the companies Ten Brinke and Invesco Real Estate, the building will feature a ground floor and two basements, allowing it to accommodate a variety of housing options. From family apartments to more compact units and premium formats, the tower aims to attract different profiles of residents. Flexibility in design is key to meeting the current demands of the real estate market.

This development focuses not only on quantity but also on quality. According to Jörg Tiggemann, CEO of Ten Brinke in Spain and Portugal, the project reflects a commitment to sustainability and architectural innovation. ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) criteria will be implemented, ensuring that the building is energy efficient and uses materials with a low environmental impact.

Alcalá de Henares has established itself as one of the fastest-growing municipalities within the Madrid metropolitan area. The arrival of the skyscraper represents a significant milestone in this evolutionary process. Fernando San Juan, Senior Director at Invesco Real Estate for Spain and Portugal, emphasizes that this partnership between both companies is a testament to the region's potential to continue developing ambitious residential projects.

Construction will begin in the coming weeks and is generating great anticipation among local residents. This skyscraper not only promises to change the urban landscape of Alcalá but also contribute to the economic and social development of the area. With a diversified offering that includes modern and accessible options, it is expected to attract both young professionals and established families.
