Well only one solid plan Zalmhaven. The rest gets sketchy real quick especially with recession approaching.

Lovely Rotterdam..

when the 200/300m+ finised, get maybe Rotterdam the best looking skyline in EU.

^Your right, but high towers aren't always the best, it's also nice to have a dense skyline, and this one is.

Here are some pictures from my "My Pictures" map, most of them are old, but I found some nice shots I wanted to share with you!

New towers under construction or even in project?

xlchris
November 12th, 2008, 07:09 PM
^A vision yes, it was made with real projects in mind. So it is possible that those are going to be build. I will also try and make such a simple future shot. Hopefully these towers will still be build. The credit crunch stops most projects.

The last but one picture which is taken from Capelle a/d IJssel is the bomb.
There must be a larger version of it somewhere, or not?

Minimum 3 or 4 iconic towers and Rotti is in my top 3 in Europe !
Btw i luv this kindof scattered skyline ... from some angles it looks like a part of NY, what is unique for a european skyline ...

There are plans to build a tower on top of the post office in Rotterdam.

Koopgoot II
The 'Koopgoot' is an important shopping connection. This new complex will expand the underground connection and will be a new icon.
