Gateway Towers is a 26-story mixed-use high-rise located beside Point State Park, Gateway Center, Wyndham Grand Hotel, and Allegheny Riverfront Park in Downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Constructed between late 1962 and mid-1964, it was built as a luxury apartment and executive office building by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States.

During 1979–1980, it was converted to luxury condominiums by Commonwealth Fort. By 1987, the 94 remaining units were sold by auction. The building underwent a $3 million capital improvement in 2006. Overall, it has 560,000 square feet (52,000 m2) in 308 residential units.
