In May 2017 it was announced that the building would be demolished and a new, taller tower would be built on its and neighboring lots. In October 2017, Aeromexico moved its corporate staff to the Torre MAPFRE at Paseo de la Reforma 243, and other locations. The intention at the time was that the business staff would return to a portion of the new tower once it was built.[4]
