The Exo Building is a 17-storey office building located at the corner of North Wall Quay and East Wall Road in Dublin 1, Ireland. The building is adjacent to the Point Depot (now the 3Arena) fronting on to the river Liffey and Dublin port. As of 2021, it was the tallest office building in the Republic of Ireland at 73 metres tall.[3][4] The name Exo is in reference to its exoskeleton which reflects the traditional industrial crane and gantry landscape of the port area.
State owned postal services and delivery company An Post have signed a lease in 2021 to become the anchor tenant of the building.[5] As of 2023, An Post intended to occupy 6 floors of the building with around 900 of its staff.[6]
