PARIS | Tour Carpe Diem | 162m | 38 fl | T/O - Page 3

Now that piling is done, some concrete is being poured to build the slab (in the very back).

We can say that Carpe Diem's construction in itself has now started

.

Thanks to Milo!

It's rising gradually...

Gradually? That's pretty impressive going considering it was little more than a hole in the ground in january.

ps: perhaps I'm too demanding Talisker...I'd like it to rise faster but you're right though, it's coming along nicely & not that slowly.

Nice we already see a real core. The tower looks quite small to the place there. Not really much space between the right building.

Nice. I like the open upper part, somehow like a giant balcony. Will there be some sort of observation platform, a garden, bar/café up there? Would be really an amazing bonus for the tower.

For the last floor:
"In the last floor, the club of direction(management), will allow to welcome meeting rooms, club, dining rooms for the future users in a privileged space surrounded with terraced gardens, making of this place a vegetable island in the middle of the sky. The roof will also contain an opening, a real panoramic big screen on Paris."

Best place to built it is all tall there in that corner.

Great progress.

I'm glad to see something of this quality getting build for La Defense

Way better than this clunky "Phare" shock-headed Peter.
