The Valencia Tower is a residential building in Madrid, Spain. It is the most known as well as most controversial project by Javier Carvajal.
The project approval was passed by the City Council of Madrid in 1968. The building process took place between 1970 and 1973. The construction was temporarily halted by the City Council in April 1971 on behalf of the Ministry of Housing, on the basis of the complaints filed by the neighbours, who wanted the building to be tore down. The building was then acrimoniously derided in the pages of ABC. The works resumed in June. A 26-floor concrete tower, reaching a 94-metre height, it became the highest residential building in the Spanish capital when it was finally opened in 1973.
It is located in the Retiro District, in front of the Retiro Park, in the junction of Menéndez Pelayo Avenue and O'Donnell Street.
