I agree, there is not. And it is both hills and mountains, after all it is the mountain city, as Sarajevo means, or an alternate old name; Seraglio. I am not completely sure which area Adnan is referring to, however I do think I have some idea and it would be towards the outlet of the Bosna river. Personally I doubt if it would be good to urbanize that area due to its importance. It is a beautiful park area bordering the wild biosphere.

However there is a different place where neccessities can be developed, and that is the location of the current airport (Butmir). This has also been identified, also for other issues namely fog issues, and it has been proposed to move that airport to Visoko north of Sarajevo, the cities are connected by motorway. That would release a lot of space which could be used in an effective way.



Anyhow, as far as the topic, it is not easy to match Moscow, and it certainly is getting anything but easier by the day :) .

Thank you for the panorama Gamma-Hamster, what an incredibly immense city.

AdnanPD
March 20th, 2009, 04:52 PM
As you can see there is lot space to develop Sarajevo. This line is where the real urban Sarajevo with high residential buildings stop and left from the line is a whole new area to develop.

Thanks Triceratops. Kyiv still lucks the true skyscraper 200m+ but at the moment it's a little bit compensated by the number of highrises. Kyiv has about 300 buildings with 20 or more floors, these are just completed or toped out and many more still U/C.

I disagree. Moscow and Warsaw are behind Frankfurt, Paris...but not Istanbul. IMO the Istanbul skyline is too dispersed over a wide area, when I look at skyline shots from Istanbul it's hard to concentrate on one dense cluster.

In Budapest the skyscrapers are don't allowed to build.. Because of the UNESCO and the goverment.. and the half country deny it.
But I think it must be allowed to build skyscrapers somewhere far from the city center.

http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=404018

Look this topic.. There are a lot of good far place. I think there would have be skyscrapers. Am i right ?
Or do you think, if millions of tourist come to Budapest, and they go to the top of the Buda Hill ( 580m, where is the Royal Palace stand.) Are the skyscrapers disturbing them? I dont think so..

I think the best skylines in Eastern Europe are in Moscow and Warsaw...
In the near future maybe Kiev and Budapest too :) .

Budapest arhitecture is the best in Eastern Europe, but no "real" highrises...

The biggest problem is the town council. They dont allowed to build skyscrapers in the city center in Budapest. Just under 65m height.
But now the council proposed an island where is able to build skyscapers which hide by the hill( because the landscape from the royal palace is protected by the UNESCO, and this is the reason why the major dont allowed.) But we dont miss them..
