A.S.P. Towers (also known as Kooy-e Nobonyad-e Vanak, Persian: ساختمانهای آ.اس.پ) are amongst the most well-known buildings in Tehran, Iran. They're located in the neighbourhood of Amir Abad and Yusef Abad in the corner of Kordestan and Hakim Highway.

They were among the first residential high-rises in Iran and have housed some of the most well-known Iranian figures over the years, including Amir-Abbas Hoveyda, prime-minister under Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.[1] The construction was carried out by A.S.P construction company. The construction is believed to have started in mid-1960s.[2] The complex consists of three buildings which are named A, B and C. The building named A is the greatest and the most luxurious in the complex.[2]

The panoramic view of the three buildings includes the Alborz Mountain Range and the Damavand peak to the east and the Milad Tower to the west. They have been a landmark of Tehran and a major point in the city's skyline since being completed in 1976, The towers were inaugurated by the then Empress of Iran Farah Diba in the same year.
