Rietumu banka - our first A+++ class office - stands amidst construction area, where lots of other buildings are started

Sorry - I managed to blur this picture. Here two pile drivers in the construction site of Sporta Street office complex. I have suspicions that they will build the first two 17 or 19-floor office towers of round shape. In total this complex plans to have 6 highrises.

2 previously unseen additions of Riga's construction life:

1. 15-floor apartment building in Spilves street (in the map as #25).

2. Apartment building in Buļļu street, near by Kleistu street (isn't on the map):

Skanstes area is becoming a convenction place of Riga highrises faster than the "world famous" Kipsala island.

Does anyone by any chance has any info regarding the status of Zakusala Futuristic development?

Then Imanta is doing even more faster... But sadly Imanta and Skanstes high-rises are fare from what we could call "modern high-rise cluster". THey are just functional buildings without architectonic value...

Zakusala won't start before next year. Paperwork...

You can look interesting movie about modern Riga architecture here:

Peteris sure covers a lot of territory on his skateboard, and he manages to see the present andd the future all at once.

Not exactly. They started with 5-9 floor high part in the background of the area. In forefrint pile drivers are working for 17-floor towers.

Vecais Sakarnis · August 24th, 2007, 03:17 PM

Progress is clearly visible! Almost 3 floors in 1 month!

Hybrid 87 · August 24th, 2007, 08:01 PM

already now hanner has a new floor done

Hybrid 87 · August 25th, 2007, 09:42 PM

Hanner today
One more floor

Hybrid 87 · August 28th, 2007, 09:48 PM

Hanner is growing shocking fast.

I had two free days so I didn't see Hanner progress. Today on my lunch break I saw it. It looked to me that two more floors, but maybe just one.

Martins · August 29th, 2007, 07:58 AM

Nice, nice! But why your picture is so ''Yellow''?

Gatis · September 4th, 2007, 10:48 PM

Really? Then it is postprocessing mistake by me. Should look at another computer.

Laurijs · September 4th, 2007, 11:25 PM
