A Day in the Life of the Most Unusual Building in Caracas
The unfinished corporate skyscraper has been a squat for thousands of locals since 2007.
Originally built as the Confinanzas Financial Center, the Caracas skyscraper now known as the "Tower of David" (named after its original developer, David Brillembourg) has sat unfinished since 1994.
A real estate victim of a national banking crisis, the 45-story structure sat idle (28 floors are inhabitable) before eventually becoming a home for thousands of squatters.
