The Piedmont Region Headquarters (Grattacielo della Regione Piemonte) is a skyscraper in Turin, Italy, which houses the administrative offices of the Piedmont Region. The building, designed by Massimiliano Fuksas, was topped out in 2015.[2] It sits in an area previously used by former Fiat Avio, not far from the trade center of Lingotto, in the district of  [it] in Turin.

Construction started in fall 2011, followed by a series of missteps delaying the completion of the project. In October 2012, after a year of work on the site, an investigation was started on the assignment of the call for tenders for construction.[3] At the end of March 2016, a new investigation was launched, delaying the final stages of construction. The windows installed on the building were faulty, and roughly 300 of the 3,600 already-installed windows needed to be replaced.[4] Work did not resume until the summer of 2017.[5][6] As of June 2020, the tower has been topped out, but construction at the site continues and the anticipated move-in date for employees in September 2021[7] has been pushed out to December 2022.[8]
