A 14-storey A-class office building Delta Plaza (http://www.deltaplaza.ee) is under construction on Pärnu road, not far from Ülemiste lake. The building will be completed in November 2008.

I hope something tall gets built on the other side of the road also. That would create an impression of a gate to Tallinn :)

Much glass there, hopefully it will look good, because its extremly wide and boxy.

well, bigger part of the highrises in Tallinn are boxy, that sucks

Yes, but I think there really isn't enough demand for exclusive office spaces. Most companies just want an office building with good working conditions and reasonable price.

Just a pic I made while in a hurry and I managed to get a lighting post in the middle of the pic...oh well..

i like it!

Me too! Sleek and simple.
N&B cities need more of these anonymous towers for 'highrise infill'. It seems like most of what's being planned in at least Scandinavian cities right now are "landmarks" that are hideous.

simple building with a strong form! very characteristic to jüri okas / marika lõoke tandem!

Looks like a lower version of Swissotel, so it looks good :)

^i agree! the facade is very-very similar!

leftover facade :P

now thinking about it. Wouldnt it be absolutely-totally-frigging awesome if all the buildings in the city, including older ones had this SAME facade! hah! Commies, old town, new buildings, wooden buildings everything!

it's completed now.

^^

Did it turn out nice?

^^ It turned out ok. Nothing special,but ok.

oooo jes! the quality is superb, the building looks like a shiny black diamond :P
should go and take pics. waiting for good weather.

Lol can't we have at least one photo of the finished building rather than text explaining the situation?

yes we can!

:cheers: And this goes for all the other threads!

yes we can!

Yes take your camera for a ride!
We need evidence! ;)

Delta Plaza from a different angle :).

Thank you, Kaspar! A different, totally surprising and unusual angle indeed. :okay:

And is Delta Plaza really out with its back towards a green meadow?

Found some aerial photos of Delta Plaza.

Snapshot from helikopter?

I think they use planes :)

Few new photos of Delta Plaza. I guess it's worth showing them as almost entire office building has been rented out.

Some interesting names there. They'd look nicer in the centre, though.
