Tour Super Chapelle is the name of a skyscraper in the 18th arrondissement of Paris near the Porte de la Chapelle. The skyscraper was built in 1968 according to plans by the architect André Remondet. The building has 27 floors and measures 86 meters. Like many other buildings along the Boulevard périphérique , the high-rise has neon signs on the roof. In the 1980s and 1990s, a neon sign from Mercedes was installed on the roof, then a neon sign from Agfa , later from Canon and now from LG . At the end of the 1990s, the building was extensively renovated and the previously gray facade was painted in subtle shades of blue and rose. Together with the Tour La Sablière, also built by Remondet in 1967, on the opposite side of the street from Rue de la Chapelle , the two residential towers form a gate. The building is connected to public transport in the greater Paris area with the Porte de la Chapelle metro station.
