Looking really nice, even if it reminds me of an american nuclear powerplant.

It looks great but I feel that extra 2 floors would make it close to perfect

I've only now studied this one closer. I'm very pleased about this building. Very nice design. It could be higher, but then it would probably be killed by nimbys.

A building like this could help turn public opinion in a positive direction when it comes to (semi-)tall buildings. Another building that has that potential is the Plesner-building in Nordhavn. At least when it starts turning green...

Also it seems the final height will be 45 metres not 42 metres..
That makes it Pro, yes. But upping the height based on one newspaperarticle... nope. They tend to get heights wrong all the time. In a recent NYC case a paper quoted the height of a proposal as possibly 1000'... their source for that was most likely optimistic guess-work at a skyscraper/development-forum!

As dor thebuilding itself... meh. Not usre about that design. Which from me means: build it! I've seen so much mundane crap go up that gets the go-ahead simply from being low-rise. Time for some highrises to get built, even if everyone doesn't love the design!

There are 9 towers planed for the area. Guess that it's them that they are trying to show in the rendering but doubt they'll be much taller than the twister.

My god I fu..... hate those bastard nimbys/bananas etc.!!!

If I had known earlier I would have gone to that meeting! Unfortunataly I've already made another appointment tommorrow. I've gone to that kind of meetings before although I've been one of the only non-nimbyes there. Earlier I tried to mobilise some people in here, but you know people like DLL and Mr D. - Oops, FREKY - they are very social people but they certainly prefer beer to going to endless meetings listening to damn nimbys

One thing I don't understand. Those nimbys are ALL old, they have plenty of time because they don't need to worry about contributing to society AND THEY ALL VOTE FOR THE SAME COUPLE OF PARTIES REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS! So why the f... are all the local politicians heads up the a.. on those idiots???? I just don't get it!

Batminton! JERK!!!
