Shalom Meir Tower ((ヘブライ語:מגדל שלום מאיר), ''Migdal Shalom Meir''; commonly known as Migdal Shalom, (ヘブライ語:מגדל שלום)) is an office tower in Tel Aviv, Israel. It was Israel's first skyscraper. When its construction was completed in 1965, it was the tallest building in the Middle East and rivaled the tallest buildings in Europe in height. ==History== Migdal Shalom has 34 floors and stands at a height of 120–130 m.〔http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=104855〕〔http://jpress.org.il/Default/Scripting/ArticleWin.asp?From=Archive&Skin=TAUHe&BaseHref=DAV/1965/07/09&EntityId=Ar01000&ViewMode=HTML 〕 50,000 cubic meters of concrete, 4,000 tons of steel, 35 kilometers of water pipes, and 500 kilometres of wiring were used in the tower. The building has a cream hue tile facade which was created especially for the tower and was manufactured in Italy. The retail promenade features a mosaic mural wall by the Israeli artist Nachum Gutman.〔http://mosaicartsource.wordpress.com/2007/02/17/israel-may-1995-tel-aviv-mosaic-mural/〕 A subway station was built under the tower block but rails were never laid and the station remains empty and disconnected from any rail system.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/telaviv-lighrail/ )〕 The tower was built on the site of the Herzliya Hebrew High School. The school's architecturally and historically significant structure was razed and the school relocated in order to build the tower in 1962. This decision was later regretted. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shalom Meir Tower」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
