The FIRS Headquarters is a 17-storey office tower located on Kur Mohammed Avenue in the Central Business District of FCT. Construction began in 2015 and the building is currently being clad.

According to the architect, the development will have a Gross Build Area of 81,000mwhich includes a multi-storey car park, gymnasium, clinic and also religious facilities.

Unlike other abandoned large government projects in Abuja, progress on the FIRS HQ, though slow, has been consistent, proving better commitment from the government. Others such as The National Library and Abuja Millenium Tower have been placed on hold after estimated contract values of ₦50 billion and ₦38.2 billion respectively for their completion. Although the building is quite large, it is not certain if there will be other tenants. However, other properties such as BOI house currently lease out space to other tenants.

BNL Engineering and Construction Limited (Bouygues) is serving as the main contractor. Other members of the project team include Courtney Michel Partnership Nigeria Limited, NAIRDA, Sea Surveyors Limited, Molecular, Unecon, IAA Associates and more.
