A 26-storey, 105 m high tower originally intended to house four government ministries, before being deemed obsolete.

The Postel 2001 tower, built by the Ivorian-Lebanese architect Pierre Fakhoury in 1984 on 26 floors, is a familiar sight in the Abidjan sky at a height of 105 m, next to the Caistab tower in Le Plateau. It has a tubular profile and its facade is covered with mirrored brise-soleil windows. Its first vocation was to group together four ministries. But judged to be dilapidated in the 2000s, the tower was emptied of its ministries and then completely renovated in 2017. Its architectural signature, a pink curtain wall glass reflecting the colours of the sky, was completely changed.
