The Astro Tower (French: Tour Astro, Dutch: Astrotoren) is a skyscraper in Brussels, Belgium. It is located on the northeast corner of the small ring in the municipality of Saint-Josse-ten-Noode, just north of the Madou Plaza Tower. The Astro Tower is 107 metres (351 ft) tall, making it one of the tallest buildings in Belgium.

The financial firm Fortis leased the entirety of the building from 2005 to 2011.[2] From 2011 to 2013, the building underwent extensive renovations.[1]

The owner, HPG Belgium NV, sold the Astro Tower to Spanish investor Luresa in April 2008.
