The tower was approved for construction in September 2018, and was expected to be completed by December 2022,[6][7] but was completed, opened and handed over in April 2026.[8][9][10] The building is owned by Shanta Holdings Limited. The skyscraper is the first in Dhaka to undergo a wind tunnel test, and has a design by local firm EK Architects. It is designed as a LEED-certified green building, with a double-glazed unitised facade system for energy efficiency[11] and an intelligent Building Management System.[7]

Notable tenants of the building includes Prime Bank, which uses the leased space as the bank's headquarter.[12]
