Before their construction, the Asis candy factory was located in that territory and was laid down in November 1929. In 1989, a group of private investors bought the candy factory's land for a symbolic sum of 6 million dollars. The purchase was made through Twin Towers Inc. and Businesses Towers Holdings Inc. The two towers were planned by Yaski Sivan Architects, and include a built space of 26,000 square meters.[1]

The fronts of the buildings are covered with reflective glass windows in a post modernist style. The two towers share underground parking with entrance in tower 1. Each of the towers contain two entrances: one from the lobby (Floor E1) and one from Jabotinsky Road (Floor E2). Between the two towers, there is a space with a pond in its middle.
