Trellick Tower is a 31-storey block of flats in North Kensington, London, UK. It was designed in the Brutalist style by architect Ernő Goldfinger after a commission from the Greater London Council in 1966, and completed in 1972.
It is a Grade II* listed building and is 98 metres (322 ft) tall (120 metres (394 ft).
By the late 1970s Trellick Tower had a reputation for crime including rape and the assault of a child, and anti-social behaviour, and many tenants resisted a transfer there. However, with the introduction of the 'right to buy' council homes, many of the flats were bought by the tenants.
