Bahria Icon Tower
The Bahria Icon Tower is a skyscraper complex in the seaside municipality of Clifton in Karachi, Pakistan. The complex includes a 62-storey tower, which at 984 feet (300 m), is the tallest building in Pakistan, and is among the tallest buildings in South Asia. The complex also includes an adjacent 42-storey building, and is owned by the Bahria Town Group.
The construction of the Bahria Icon Tower was started in 2009, and was completed in March 2016. Further development of the complex has been on hold since 2021.
The Bahria Town Icon is a 62-storey, 896-foot (273 m) skyscraper in the skyscraper complex, Bahria Icon Tower.
Bahria Hotel Tower is 42-storey, 656-foot (200 m) skyscraper in the skyscraper complex, Bahria Icon Tower.
The Mall of Karachi is a mall located in Bahria Hotel Tower and Bahria Town Icon, it is spread across eight floors.
The complex is based on a four acre plot in the up-scale Clifton area, and is immediately adjacent to the Bagh Ibne Qasim park, and the shrine of Abdullah Shah Ghazi - an 8th-century mystic who is widely regarded as the patron saint of Karachi.
Construction began in 2009. During its construction, excavations for the foundations caused inconvenience for traffic flow. It was topped out in October 2017. In November 2018, a small fire broke out at the site where a marriage hall and cinema were being installed. There was a display of fireworks upon its completion. Construction had been slow and marred by allegations of corruption against the owner of Bahria Group, Malik Riaz.
In May 2025, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) announced plans to auction Bahria Icon Tower to recover due Rs. 26.46 billion in unpaid taxes, scheduling it for 19 June 2025 under section 138(2)(a) of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001. However, on June 13, 2025, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) issued a stay order, halting the auction process. This came after a petition filed by Bahria Town, asserting that it was not involved in the £190 million NAB Al-Qadir Trust case corruption case.
