IFMA Business Tower | 250 m | Pro

[Le Clerk]

Cred ca e bine sa avem cate un thread pentru fiecare proiect major, chiar daca nu sunt clare sansele de a deveni realitate.

Țiriac vrea să facă un zgârie-nori în locul turnului de ascensoare

[...]
noul zgârie-nori ar urma să aibă 250 de metri, conform prezentării oferite de companie, față de cei 114 ai actualului turn: “IFMA Business Center urmează a fi amplasat pe un teren situat în fosta zonă industrială din vecinătatea Gării de Nord, principala staţie de cale ferată a capitalei. Proiectul propune realizarea unui ansamblu de clădiri grupate în jurul unui turn de 250m înălţime, o construcţie complexă cu un standard ridicat de dotări, destinată pentru a găzdui diverse funcţiuni: birouri, centru de conferinţe, comerţ, servicii etc. Întregul complex va dispune de 8.275 locuri de parcare.” – se arată în succinta prezentare.[...]

Is a plausible project

[Cosmin]

I edited the title a bit. When we don't know the exact number of floors, let's leave exclude it and post only the height.

And c'mon, at least on this type of threads we should use English! It's not that hard!

[Le Clerk]

Noted!


Cosmin, do you think it'd be possible to have a section in the Bucharest sub-forum dedicated to high-rises/skyscrapers only, or, as an alternative, to special projects which could include high-rises/skyscrapers as well?

Reason: the number of high-rise and skyscraper projects, as well as other quality projects in Bucharest is starting to get more numerous and a dedicated section would allow for a nice organisation of such projects for us and for others who visit the section.

What do you think?

[Cosmin]

Of course we can, but I don't think we should at the moment. It would be nice, but the reality is that we don't have that many projects (not even proposed ones) to warrant this, so you're getting a bit ahead of yourself.

We can work on indexing current projects in a thread though. I think this would be better for our current needs and size.

Please, make all requests/proposals on the Sandbox or via PM.

[Le Clerk]

I think we have quite a few interesting high-rise projects which are lurking around other non-high-rise projects. Bucharest's forum is getting crowded and a bit disorganized by the variety of topics, and some separate sections would be warranted IMO, but I go with your opinion and let you decide when to make separate sections.

How about that lift tower. Is it still operational or abandoned?

[Puss in Boots]

Abandoned, and as far as I heard it never was functional although it was supposed to test the elevators from the Parliament Palace. All the elevators were tested in a near by tower, smaller than this one. I heard it was smth to do with Ceausescu.
If somebody has more info...

Well, at least posting in english will give them some incentive to check the thread out...

63 floors counted . It would look awesome if built

[PaulFCB]

Ideea este buna.
Situat intre pasajele Basarab si Grant, spatiu industrial nefolosit. Cladirea nu pare din poza exact in acelasi loc ca prezentul turn insa? Pare ca e plasat chiar pe Calea Giulesti, unde sunt niste hale industriale in prezent.

Sansele sa se construiasca acest prim zgarie-nori in Romania este mai mic datorita faptului ca pe langa simpla constructie, are nevoie si de eliminarea unui turn prezent, chiar si asa, ar cam fi timpul sa se inalte cladiri mai mari in Bucuresti, acel prag psihologic de vreo 18-20 etaje gen BRD cam macina sansele sa apara ZN adevarati fiindca acele spatii ocupate de cladirile Vodafone CdG, BRD Victoriei, Cathedral Plaza, Armeneasca, Euro Tower, City Gate si in special America House puteau sa gazduiasca cladiri mai impresionante .

Guys, I drove by the place last night, in the Basarab flyover, and you could see a HUUUUGE banner almost covering the entire Elevator testing tower, with Tiriac on it. I think they really plan to use the buiding, but I can't figure out how...

[Puss in Boots]

Banner-ul ala e mai de demult. Nu stiu ce implicatii are, daca are. Poate-l darama (turnul adica), desi mi-ar parea rau pentru ca e o structura rezistenta si bine construita (din ce am auzit).

[Goldmund]

Nice thread..."pro"- what?
It is exactly what we require

[pescarush]

proposed.

[Singidunum]

Sleek Let's hope it gets approved soon.

[Le Clerk]

Yeap! It'd be awesome to see works there next year.

There was a banner with "Tiriac-auto" even something like 7-8 years ago (when i was staying in the Crangasi area, and was using the 41 every day, crossing the Grant bridge, near the elevator tower). It's just a commercial, like on many other buildings in Bucharest ...it doesn't mean anything, or doesn't have anything to do with the construction of a 250m tower...I think....

This project would definitely have a major impact on the area, and change it for good....especially with the Heineken project, just a few meters away. There would be a spectacular skyline created, with the cable stayed bridge(85m), plus some +100m highrises and a +200m tower.
