In April 2017, Kule Verici Tesisleri İşletim ve Teknolojileri A.Ş., or by its short name “Kule A.Ş.,” was established to operate terrestrial transmission facilities. The Çamlıca Radio & TV Tower is built on an area of 30,150 square meters. It is the tallest structure in Istanbul with a height of 587 meters above sea level. The tower consists of 49 floors, four of which are underground. The project was created through a competition, and then designed in 3D. Besides being the tallest building in Turkey, the tower has been successfully and firmly built on one of the riskiest areas in terms of earthquakes and wind load, which elevates its symbolic status.

 

The rapid development of technology increased the number of transmitters required for effective radio-TV broadcasting. Some of these global transmitters fall short of today’s standards and cause visual and electromagnetic pollution. Through its prestige project 'Çamlıca TV & Radio Tower' Kule A.Ş. has consolidated the antennas scattered around the ancient city of Istanbul and saved the landscape from visual pollution. The project has both brought the local broadcasting services to modern standards and has given Istanbul a smart, sleek, eco-friendly, and symbolic building, which will surely promote the tourism in the city. Through collaborations with domestic and national technology companies, Küçük Çamlıca Television and Radio Tower has improved the quality and capacity of local radio-TV broadcasting operations to world standards and significantly contributed to the development of Turkey.
