Triumph Palace (
apartment building in Moscow and all of Europe. It is sometimes called the Eighth Sister because it is similar in appearance to the Seven Sisters[4] skyscrapers built in Moscow under Joseph Stalin
through the 1950s. Construction began in 2001 and was completed in 2006.
The 57-storey building, containing about 1,000 luxury apartments [citation needed], was topped out on 20 December 2003, making it Europe's[1] and Russia's tallest skyscraper at 264.1 metres (866 ft) until the inauguration in 2007 of Moscow's 268-metre Naberezhnaya Tower block C.
Triumph Palace is featured in detail in the 2009 Channel 4 series Vertical City (series 1, episode 8).
