6.5/10

I find the shape interesting but the facade especially in the first pic needs a reclad.

the tower looks ok, nice place there in the water(?).

7/10

It's residential?
Nice tower, 6.5

Agreed.

Nice tower, 6.5

Yes, its mostly residential. On the top is a restaurant and on groundlevel are some offices and shops for the marina.

This tower could be nice if it got a new facade. Especially with the beautiful surrounding landscape. The water you can see is some kind of Fjord which is connected with the baltic sea.

8/10 I like it, and look at it's position in the water!

Nice waterfront location, and interesting octagonal footprint. nothing particularly special though. 7.5/10

dunno why...but this one is so cool for me 9/10

It looks so cool in this photo:

There are plans to demolish it! I hope they will do it soon

As much as I love the name ;) and the location, I can't give it more than a 7/10

There are plans to demolish it! I hope they will do it soon

I hope not. It just needs a new facade!

I give it 8/10....!
Just a new facade please! :D

The scenery deserves a better building! 8.5/10

7,5/10

It's a very nice, classic tower for the seventies. Needs some renovation.
Quite high for such a little town (25.000 inh.according to Emporis).
Where is Schleswig situated? The nord, I suppose.
Lovely location too.

Not so special. Just okay. 5/10

Deserves a 8/10 :)

the location and the shape are very nice, but for sure, it needs a new facade.... Maybe they do that in the next years, I hope so ;)

great location looks like al-burj-arab in dubai :)
