Changes in the utilization of the building, rescheduling and financial difficulties of individual investors subsequently led to construction delays in the Mediapark. The construction work on the 148.5 m high Kölnturm (Köln Tower) had to be temporarily stopped in April 1995 for example. Finally, in 2001, the Kölnturm, designed by Jean Nouvel, was inaugurated. It consists of a load-bearing central core and pendulum supports at the edge of the individual floors. Its facade reflects the Cologne city panorama with the cathedral.
