As of 2023, it is the fourth-tallest building in Frankfurt and the fourth-tallest in Germany, tied with Main Tower. The anchor tenant of the tower is the German branch office of PricewaterhouseCoopers, which has leased 60000 m2.
The tower was initially planned to be 185 m with 50 storeys; however, in the final plan by Christoph Mäckler, the height was increased to 200 m. Nevertheless, its name was not changed, hence "Tower 185".
When Germany submitted its application to have Frankfurt selected as the seat of the European Union's Anti-money-laundering authority (AMLA) in 2023, Tower 185 was one of three options – alongside Messeturm – presented as potential location for the new agency.
