Is Bankasi Towers(only the main tower)

Istanbullu · November 27th, 2004, 09:41 AM

Park plaza and the tower next to it(don't know it's name). These towers add the manhattan touch to the skyline...

Urban Girl · November 27th, 2004, 09:58 AM

Based on these photos, I'd say AkbankSA Towers, closely followed by TAT Towers.

How tall are they? You should have included heights with each photo.

wanton6 · November 27th, 2004, 02:17 PM

you are right bro,I add the heights now decide...

I usually like Arabic modern buildings but I'm not too fond of these. But the Yapi Kredi plaza looks pretty good.

i know, isbank is very beautiful but my favorite is tekfen!!

Phobos · November 27th, 2004, 08:23 PM

Wow!Thanks for the pictures of Is Bank Sercan

The crown of that building is nice indeed,it reminds me in some ways the top of Tower 42 in London,although Is Bank has a better shape.

Difficult to choose, although my first choice would be the Daimond of Istanbul which is under construction, with the second being the Sisli Elite Residence (if I remember the name correctly). Nice futuristic design. Also, believe it or not, I like the Polaris tower too, too bad it is built in a curb and not facing Buyukdere Avenue (the main road, that is).

***www.sercan.de*** · November 28th, 2004, 03:31 PM

Sisli Elit Residence ( 140 m 35 Floors)

(+)
