Cosmopolitan Twarda 2/4, formerly known as Twarda Tower or Hines Tower, is a mainly residential skyscraper (160 meters high, 44 storeys)^[1] in central Warsaw, Poland. The project was developed by Tacit Development Polska.

The tower includes 252 apartments^[2] ranging from 54 to 198 square metres (580 to 2,130 sq ft), with a net total area of above-ground floors of as much as 32,000 m² (340,000 sq ft). Four penthouses are planned to be situated on the top floor.^[3] Its ground floor along Twarda Street is to provide commercial space for shops and services and its underground part has been designed to accommodate a 300-vehicle car park.

The first plans of building developed on this plot were revealed in 2006 when Foundation Shalom appointed leading Polish architect Stefan Kuryłowicz to design a tower. Soon after the Foundation was forced through lack of funds to sell the plot to Tacit Development. A new design was prepared by German architect Helmut Jahn. Up to 2011 Hines was the developer of the scheme, but Tacit, the investor behind the scheme, took it over.

As of February 2015, Cosmopolitan Twarda 2/4 is be the tallest completed residential building in Warsaw, and second in Poland (after Sky Tower in Wrocław). It will fall to third place once Złota 44 is completed.
