Cathedral Plaza is a class A office building in the city of Bucharest, Romania. It has 19 floors and a surface of 23,000 m2. At a height of 75 m (246 ft), the construction was finished in 2010.[1]

The building's proximity to Saint Joseph Cathedral has made it the target of lawsuits by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Bucharest, which claims the construction was unsafe redesigned by the Developer (Daiana Voicu) under the guidance of Popp & Asociatii (Ing. Dragos Marcu) and undertaken illegally. The Project has been litigated in the Romanian Courts, declared illegal and ordered by the Courts to be dismantled by the local authority having jurisdiction.
