Great news for Klaipeda and the whole Lithuania.

In Slovakia are the highrises announced in Banska Bystrica (Europa shopping centre), plans are for Žilina, Trnava and Lučenec (widening of the Business zone).

In Bratislava the new highrise is going to be finished in Ružinov district /will bring the photos/. Furthermore there are recently the discussions in Stare Mesto district about the construction of another highrise (34 floors), but there are still the petitions of district inhabittants against it, so it is up to mayor of this district to decide.
The panorama of this Bratislava part, including new highrise

Furthermore, another plans are announced, or started, one of them is Pribinova zone http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showth...ght=bratislava

At least Jacek will be happy

edolen1 · November 10th, 2004, 10:39 PM

John · November 10th, 2004, 11:16 PM

Author of that map must've been very politically biased

MIMICA · November 10th, 2004, 11:30 PM

Very nice city, and even better highrises! Nice pictures!

Mantas · November 11th, 2004, 05:21 PM

So many projects fro such a small town, although good to see it happening

Shame, we planned to take over Kaliningrad in few years, but Poland was first

Still i think we should fight for this territory..

What are the chances for all those towers to be built? Are they proposed or already U/C? The projects are great!

John · February 17th, 2005, 03:51 PM

This 20 storey tower is U/C, not sure about others

a few weeks ago

ch1le · February 17th, 2005, 05:06 PM

That map is more then Stupid, Tallinn is with one N on the map. I want the authors head! I can forgive far away countries but i expect Lithuanians to know it by now :P

Sergei · February 17th, 2005, 07:04 PM

No offense, but some of those projects are kinda ugly. I don't like the Gandraliskes Quarter project, especially the bases.

The rest of them are really nice. Good luck with that, it's great that there is a constuction boom in EE.

John · March 5th, 2005, 07:33 PM

I'm bringing this old thing up.

Two new 30 storey residential highrises were just announced in central part of Klaipeda. I think it's not the end yet

AUTO · March 6th, 2005, 12:14 AM
