Design and construction

The towers were designed by Thomas Associates. A distinctive architectural feature is the rooftop cantilever supporting the "Sky Mansion" originally planned by businessman Vijay Mallya. [10] [11]

Sky Mansion

The Sky Mansion covering the top levels of one tower, was built as a 40,000 square foot penthouse resembling the White House. [12] [13] It includes a helipad, infinity pool, private elevators, and landscaped rooftop gardens. Though completed, the mansion remains unoccupied following Mallya's departure from India amid financial and legal proceedings. The property has since been seized by Government of India. [14]
