The Pagcor Tower (Tagalog: Tore ng PAGCOR) was a proposal for a 665 m (2,182 ft) tall observation tower near Manila Bay in Manila, Philippines. The tower was meant to be constructed as the landmark of the now opened Pagcor City (or Entertainment City Manila), an integrated leisure area with hotels, shopping malls, convention centers and casinos. If built, it would be one of the world's tallest towers in the world, beating Japan's Tokyo Skytree.[1]
