It was the headquarters building of the Spanish company Naturgy, formerly known as Gas Natural, until 2019 when the company's legal headquarters were moved to Madrid. == Description == The Gas Natural Building was designed by the architects Enric Miralles and Benedetta Tagliabue in the high-tech architectural style. It was completed in 2005 and officially inaugurated in 2008. It has 20 floors, and rises 86 m (282 ft). It has an innovative and distinctive image, as the building has two lower horizontal glazed blocks protruding and cantilevered out from the main tower. It is located near the seafront, and to the southwest of two other La Barceloneta skyscrapers, the Hotel Arts and the Torre Mapfre. In 2019, Naturgy sold the Mare Nostrum Tower to Inmobiliaria Colonial. == See also == List of tallest buildings and structures in Barcelona Skyscraper office buildings in Barcelona == References == - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 09 - Plumbing Services/Section 4 - Gas Supply]] - [[Building Construction/Construction & Materials/Building Material/Natural Stone]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 06 - Structural Design/Section 7B - Systems Building]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 05 - Building Materials]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 08 - Building Services]] - [[Building Construction/Construction & Materials/Building Material]] - [[Building Services/Building Performance/Building Envelope]] - [[Interior Architecture/Renovation and Conservation/Building Assessment]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/International Building Codes]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India]]
