- The tower is surrounded with a private 'Sculpture Garden', and a private pier for light-boats is planned to be built in the future.
- Some of Israel's most expensive apartments are located in this tower, with the least expensive apartment (230 square meters of floor space) costing $800,000 and the duplex penthouse (500 square meters of floor space) costing over $3,000,000.
- One of the tower's most striking features is its glass-made pyramidal top.
- The tower's name came from its unique location, neighbouring The Yarkon Park. Ayalon Highway passes nearby as well.
- Most luxury apartments in the tower occupy an entire floor, and have at least 2 parking spaces in the underground parking.
- Ilan Pivko, the tower's architect, was given a free-hand in the design of this tower. The result is one of Israel's most original and distinctive towers.
- The tower features a unique small apartment within the tower base, which is supposed to provide home for the tower guards.

I realy hate this tower. It looks like a kid made it and doesnt fit into the urban landcape around there very well. It belongs in a small rural airport somewhere in western china as a control tower.
