Varso is a neomodern office building under construction by real estate developer HB Reavis in Warsaw, Poland, designed by Foster and Partners.[1][2][3] The tower will also be the tallest building in Poland and in the European Union upon completion. Varso Tower is estimated to be completed by 2020.[3]

The tower will be accompanied by two lower buildings - an 81-metre building and a 103-metre building. Once the tower is complete, it will have the fastest lift speed in Poland - 8 m/s.

Ground works are currently being done at the site and are cited as being "the hardest part of the construction" and that once they are done, construction of the buildings will be fairly quick.
