A consortium of investors, led by Pedro Aspe’s Protego Asesores, a boutique investment bank, will build the largest building in Latin America on Mexico City’s historic Paseo de la Reforma, according to reports today at Bloomberg.com and El Universal.com.mx. 

Construction is to begin at the end of 2008 and is expected to be completed by 2011.  The building, which will be 244 meters high (800 feet), will be equipped with LED lighting and solar panels to reduce energy costs. 

The Torre Mayor, also located on Paseo de la Reforma, is currently the tallest building in Latin America at 225 meters (783 feet).
