I don't usually like to rate older buildings as it is usually unfair, but I like these, and they are nice in person and I think there is a nice bar near to there :cheers:
Jo January 12th, 2004, 01:26 AM To me, these are te best highrises in Sweden - so far. Maybe I'm biased but I gave them a 9 rating.
They are a little too small though but hey, they are in Sweden and they are built in the 1920s!
BTW, I read that the architects (Sven Wallander and Ivar Callmander) were inspired by Louis Sullivan's creations.
New Jack City January 13th, 2004, 11:48 PM 8/10...Old and classy with a cool mini bridge.

Its simple and graceful without being flamboyant. Class.
finn January 14th, 2004, 02:16 AM That early version of a sky-bridge is excellent!! :D
The Messiah January 14th, 2004, 08:03 PM Hehe nice! I really like the mini bridge!

james2390 January 20th, 2004, 12:14 AM looks great, like the skybridge:D 10/10 what are they currently used for?
Jo January 20th, 2004, 01:05 AM The road the photos are taken from is cutting through a hill so that skybridge is just a normal bridge for the road going across up there and is not really a part of the towers. ;)

I like them.
Would be cool if the street would be a pedestrian zone and shopping street.
