The Isrotel Tower is a skyscraper hotel located on the beachfront of Tel Aviv, Israel. Standing 108 meters high, the 29 floor tower is operated by the Israeli Isrotel hotel group and is the tallest tower on Tel Aviv’s Promenade. The tower was completed in 1997 and features a rooftop swimming pool, the highest in Israel, and one of only three hotels in Tel Aviv to feature this. Upon completion, this tower was also the tallest building in the country with balconies although the Tel Aviv Towers now have this position.

The Coit Tower (yes, it really is called by that name), also known as the Lillian Coit Memorial Tower, is a 210-foot (64 m) tower in the Telegraph Hill neighbourhood of San Francisco, California. The tower, in the city’s Pioneer Park, was built in 1933 using Lillie Hitchcock Coit’s bequest to beautify the city of San Francisco. Lillie Hitchcock Coit was a wealthy socialite who loved to chase fires in the early days of the city’s history. Before December 1866, there was no city fire department, and fires in the city, which broke out regularly in the wooden buildings, were extinguished by several volunteer fire companies. Lillie Coit was one of the more eccentric characters in the history of North Beach and Telegraph Hill, smoking cigars and wearing trousers long before it was socially acceptable for women to do so. She was an avid gambler and often dressed like a man in order to gamble in the males-only establishments that dotted North Beach. Lillie’s fortunes funded the monument four years following her death in 1929. She had a special relationship with the city’s firefighters. At the age of fifteen she witnessed the Knickerbocker Engine Co. No. 5 in response to a fire call up on Telegraph Hill when they were shorthanded, and threw her school books to the ground and pitched in to help, calling out to other bystanders to help get the engine up the hill to the fire, to get the first water onto the blaze. After that Lillie became the Engine Co. mascot and could barely be constrained by her parents from jumping into action at the sound of every fire bell. In October 1863, she was made an honourary member of the engine company. She then rode along with the firefighters when they went to a fire or were in parades, and attended their annual banquets.
