[Geex]

Not bad, just in one particular area invesment reaches over 500000000 Litas ! Go Klaipeda Go ! :)

[Mantas]

Very fine news for Klaipeda, moreover... 2 15-stories are planned in Vites district. Go Klaipeda :D

Are they fucking crazy or what?! what's up there with Klaipeda? :ohno:

Now let me count what are current highrise projects in Klaipeda (I hope I didn't forget anything)

[blimey]

I dont like it when skyline is dominated by residentials.

But apart from that all i can say is "Go Klaipeda!" :)

[John]

The good thing about Klaipeda is that most of those residentials will not appear as ones i.e. you can't jusge their purpose by their looks (like it is in Vilnius in most cases) what is a very positive thing.

[Rokas]

It's pretty funny, but all these projects are serious enough to be realized ;)

[Rokas]

BTW, Gandraliskes now is U/C ;)

[Devilution]

Whoa! Klaipeda sure is becoming a strong contender in this Scandi-Baltic high-rise game of ours :applause:

[John]

14 known high-rise projects are currently being developed in Klaipeda (12 of which are 20 floors or higher).

Btw, there is a residential project of two 20 storey towers but we don't know much about it and no renderings. If this is a real project as well, Klaipeda's high-rise project number is rising to 16. :crazy:
Well I'm trying to believe this but it looks impossible :ohno:

[Mantas]

^^^ Hehe, seems like a nice boomchik :D Although those projects are for a long time period :|

[John]

^^^
Most are for 2004-2006 except Gandraliskes which will last until 2010.

[blimey]

.......and one high-rise to rule them all: "K"

It's so simple yet so genius.
My favourite proposed tower so far!

Wasss? :eek:
How big city Klaipeda is? ~150.000?

Anyway, this list sounds too good to be true! :D

[Estboy]

Wow...What the hell are they doing with this city... :eek2: :) Good news

[John]

Wasss? :eek:
How big city Klaipeda is? ~150.000?

Anyway, this list sounds too good to be true! :D

It's nearly 200,000.

But I agree, it sounds abit too good to be truth.
Despite the fact that all those projects are either approved or close to it (they are all real projects, with investors who have necessary funds and detailed plans for their land plots with announced dates of construction, etc.). All I'm afraid is that if some project would not be very successful (f.e. they wouldn't be able to sell all apartments in one of the towers), other projects might be stopped :ohno:.
But I hope this is just my bad imagination :)

[ShuMi]

x fl residential highrise (Taikos pr.)
x fl office highrise (Taikos pr.)
About which highrises are you talking about here?
Hanner and the second building of elektromarkt?

[pablonis]

as i already told earlyer, they will bring down the prestige area, where the rich people live, and will extend the harbour nearly twice, so they will need new living places

[ShuMi]

No its not a new highrise! :D
I was just watching at the old threads and saw this list:

34fl residential (Gandraliskes)

[John]

Looks unbelievable. Let's just wait and see. :)

[Homer]

ShuMi, what about this one "15fl residential (Vingio street)" ? are you talking about that built soviet commie ? if yes, it is 16fl. :)

[ShuMi]

Statys greta prekybos centro

Siuo metu rengiamas naujas "Vyturio" prekybos centro detalusis planas, kurio uzsakovai ketina palei pietine prekybos centro dali pastatyti 15 aukstu gyvenamaji nama.

Architekto Sauliaus Plunges teigimu, naujame daugiabutyje turetu buti irengta apie 60 butu.

Greta namo ketinama pastatyti apie 170 stovejimo vietu triju aukstu pozemine ir antzemine automobiliu stovejimo aikstele.

Ant automobiliu stovejimo aiksteles stogo ketinama irengti gyvenamojo namo kiema su zeldiniais bei vaiku zaidimo aikstele.

Namo statybas ketinama pradeti ateinanciais (siais) metais.

[deSad]

go klaipeda let's hope they will build these highrises

Talking about more highrises, soon Norvegian company "Niels thorp" should present the project for the business and entertainment complex instead of the "Klaipeda ship repair" company, a lot of money should be invested, and highrises are expected.
And one more, some American company some time ago bought a bancrupted company "Trinyciai", and they are talking about residentials (factory on the left):
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/ArTuRAs/Joniskes1.jpg

Just hope that most of these projects will be realised.

[sander]

Wow. As I can see Gandraliskes will be the main cluster for skyscrapers?
... :sleepy: That`s scary.

[Mantas]

This list is already scary :|

[ch1le]

the list is fkin horrible... Klaipeda is the Dubai of this region...

Thats realy unbelievable :D

News today:

"Invalda real estate" will invest about 40mln euros into a new residential complex instead of the "Trinyciai" company. They will orient to young families and etc., so it wount be expensive and luxurious. It shoul be about 1000 new flats.
The project is in development. They are planing to start the construction this year and they are expecting to finish it in a few years.

[ShuMi]

Some update on the list:

The two 33fl.(not 30fl. as we though) twind will be reduced in height because of the old town that is very near. They will built 3 18-24. residentials.
New business and entertainment complex with a 20fl. hotel ;)
"Trinyciai" residential district may have just one highrise, it will be a 18 floorer :(
Bad news: The two 16fl. office twins in the Vite quarter may be reduced to 10 floors :(

[beta29]

Damned, I´m afraid of this city.

[Aiwa]

about 18 buildings over 20 fl.... oh my God!!!

[Jarmo K]

what's the estimated population of the town by let's say 2010?

.... most of the towers seem to be residentials.

[blimey]

Yup. It's mostly residentials, that's why i'm not that excited. I don't like residential skyscrapers.

[Mantas]

^^^ Don't say this, Tallinners may offend :D

[ShuMi]

If we build a lot of residential skyscrapers, that meens that office towers will folow soon ;)
@blimey
Aren`t you jealous a bit? :D

It`s a vision:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/ArTuRAs/vitte0us.jpg

But maybe in some time something like this will be not.

[Mantas]

^^^ Which project exactly is that?

Btw, it's the website of this tower of the subject, too bad the page is U/C now
www.dangoraizis.lt

[ShuMi]

It`s just a vision, not a real project i think. Although it was in the model of Klaipeda that was in MIPIM :

http://www.ve.lt/galery/2005-03-17/laikrastis/be12_.jpg

Vite towers will rise somewhere in that territory i think, and a new 8fl. office building is u/c across the street.

[Nightsky]

I wonder how many new highrises that will come up. Seems like they already cancelled too many. It could be the future "highrise capital" of the Baltics and Scandinavia.

may your words come true Nightsky :)

[ShuMi]

@Nightsky
They have`nt cancelled none. About what are you talking about?
All of these projects have real investors. not just detail plans and number of height like somewhere :D

[ch1le]

/\ it will never be... that is beyond logical and economical sense

[John]

^^^
Tallinn's ass is burning, eh? ;)

[ShuMi]

^^^
Tallinn's ass is burning, eh? ;)

As it always was :D

[ch1le]

^^^
Tallinn's ass is burning, eh? ;)

not really no.. we have a 145m tower about to go up.. (optimistic guess is it will go uc in 4 days) and a 40 storey tower (estimated 130m) spreading its plans.. also a nother highrise this time just 19 storeys (i think) plot has been fenced, and those are all in 1 cluster.. so im not worrying ;)

[Mantas]

^^^ Please don't count the spires, just please ;)

[ch1le]

/\ yes i will mwuahahaha :F

[John]

^^^
you wish that we'd start countring spires in Vilnius and Klaipeda too? This better doesn't happen because Tallinn will get smashed ;) :D

[ch1le]

which highrises in Vilnius have spires? The thing on top of ET is a antenna and if im not mistaken it wasnt in the detail plan and it doesnt supplement the archiecture ;) Ergo.. it doesnt count ;)

[Edd]

It's stupid to count spires. It's possible to build 12 floor commieblock and attach to it 100 meter spire - then it would become the tallest building in the Baltics? - No, I don't think so. :D
I think that you can't have floors inside spires or antennas or anything similar ;) , so they should not be counted. But if someone wants to count them then we'll count ET with it too. :)

[Edd]

which highrises in Vilnius have spires? The thing on top of ET is a antenna and if im not mistaken it wasnt in the detail plan and it doesnt supplement the archiecture ;) Ergo.. it doesnt count ;)Check this page out: http://www.ambrasas.lt/realizacijos/europa/europa.htm
As you can see - it was planned at the begining, only at first it looked better imo and in later plans it looks as it is now - imo worse. The purpose of it is unknown. We don't know if it only "decorates" tower or is used as antenna or smth.

[ch1le]

Et... its not a spire but a antenna
the spire on Tartu mnt 15 will be considerably larger... its supposed to make a slimmer look for a building... so it has a architectural purpous :)... i know its cheesy.. (doesnt give me the full satisfaction of beating vilnius... but it does the trick - just like Radisson...)

[Mantas]

Et... its not a spire but a antenna

Hehe, and..?

[Edd]

Et... its not a spire but a antenna
We don't know it, so you don't know it for sure. But if you'll want we'll learn about it (I have not heard that it is used as antenna so there is big posibility that it isn't).

It's your choice, for you commieblock with 12 floors and 100 meter spire can be 140 floor skyscraper and for me it'll be only 40m. commieblock. :D

[Edd]

@ch1le: Read carefully the official page of company who built ET: http://www.hanner.lt/En/obj/12_ig.html

We knew it a long time ago but we didn't count it and we always said that ET is 129m tall (not 148,30 m) but if you want it - you can think of ET as 148,30 m tall tower but imo it's stupid.

[ch1le]

holy crap edd :D

[blimey]

OT: Nice avatar, Ch1le :okay:

[ch1le]

OT: So is yours! :D

[ShuMi]

Back to the topic:
Today is the day when the detailed plan should be aproved. So maybe tomorrow we will know much more about this project :okay:

[John]

Shumi, is there any decent info about this project at all? Now I don't really have much idea about its height, developer, location...

[ShuMi]

The developer i think is "Elektromarkt" and the scrapers should be built next to theyr shop and form a complex or something like that.

Here`s an old article in lithuanian:

Kitais metais šalia Lengvosios atletikos maniežo turėtų prasidėti daugiaaukščio administracinio ir gyvenamųjų namų komplekso statyba. Maždaug 50 tūkst. kvadratinių metrų bendrojo ploto kompleksas vertinamas 100-120 milijonų litų. Pastatų kompleksą suprojektavo sostinės architektai.

Architektas Leonidas Merkinas, savivaldybės tarybos Teritorijų planavimo komitete pristatęs pastatų kompleksą, planuojamą tarp Lengvosios atletikos maniežo ir prekybos centro „Elektro Markt“, atsiduso lengviau, kai komiteto narys miesto meras Rimantas Taraškevičius paklausė: „Tai kada gi pradėsite statybą? Tokiam objektui statybos leidimą galime pasirašyti tuoj pat“.

Teritorijų planavimo komiteto nariams, Urbanistinės plėtros departamento direktoriui Kastyčiui Macijauskui, uostamiesčio vyriausiajam architektui Almantui Mureikai nekilo klausimų dėl suplanuoto dangoraižių komplekso. Architektas L.Merkinas aiškino, kad projektuotojai atsižvelgė į anksčiau savivaldybės specialistų pareikštus pageidavimus, o viešojo svarstymo metu nebuvo pareikšta jokių priekaištų ar rimtesnių pastabų.

Taikos pr. 58 – toks bus naujojo pastatų komplekso adresas. Apatinėje dalyje planuojamas nemažas dviejų aukštų prekybos centras su parduotuvėmis ir restoranais. Komplekso centrinėje ašyje – 30 aukštų administracinis pastatas, šalia – du žemesni gyvenamosios paskirties pastatai. K.Macijauskas išreiškė pageidavimą, kad ant plokščio prekybos centro stogo būtų suprojektuota žalioji zona: dabartinės statybos galimybės tai leidžia, o gyventojams bus kur „paganyti akis“, žvilgsnio nebadys pilka plokštuma. A.Mureika nurodė, kad tarp pastatų komplekso ir privačių gyvenamųjų namų, kylančių Agluonos gatvės rajone, statytojų lėšomis būtina nutiesti pėsčiųjų ir dviračių taką.

Kompleksas užims maždaug 2,5 ha, statytojai įsipareigoja tinkamai sutvarkyti visą aplinką, įrengti požeminius garažus prekybos centro klientams ir gyventojams. Taikos prospekte laipsniškai formuosis dangoraižių kvartalas – šiuolaikiškas miesto centras.
