Construction started in 2001.
The 57-storey building, containing about 1,000 luxury apartments, was topped out on 20 December 2003, making it Europe's and Russia's tallest skyscraper in 264.

Milan Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Milano Italian pronunciation: [?dw??mo di mi?la?no]; Lombard: Domm de Milan [?d?m p mi?lã?]) is the cathedral church of Milan, Lombardy, Italy. Committed to the Nativity of St Mary (Santa Maria Nascente), It's the seat of the Archbishop of Milan, currently Archbishop Mario Delpini. The cathedral took nearly six centuries to complete: construction began in 1386, and the final details were completed in 1965. It is the largest church in Italy--the bigger St. Peter's Basilica is in the State of Vatican City, a sovereign nation--and the second largest in Europe and the fourth largest in the world.
