I'm sure the skyline will look very good in a couple of years but for now,I give it 6/10.

Alright, I'll give you a ten

But only because I know Vilnius' little secret

7/10 ..

Love the Vyrokas Residential building. Cant wait to see it completed.

Brasil Guy · April 13th, 2004, 10:47 PM

5 for the nice buildings!

odivelense · April 14th, 2004, 04:33 PM

For a small city isn't bad. So I give a 7.

Jasonhouse · April 14th, 2004, 09:08 PM

It reminds me of what I would expect to see in this kind of city if it was in Pennsylvania.

For what it has, it is decent. It is always neat to see little skylines like this grow into something bigger over the years.

5/10

5.5/10

Looks like some new construction will be raising the rating.

BTW - What's the middle tower and the blue tower called?

EstablishedStyle · April 19th, 2004, 08:08 AM

Je le deteste le Vilnius - c'est ennyeux et froid. Le cinq points.

The middle tower is called Europa Tower - a part of Europa complex that includes Europa Tower, Europa Apartments, Europa mall and square Europa (Some info here)

The name of that blue tower is unknown as the date of cunstruction. But it has the investors and will start rising soon

I like the new glass buildings. Very nice

....and mixed with the older buildings. It's different.

Right now I give it an Eight, but I'm pretty sure it has the brightest future!

I love the appearance of the new buildings on the skyline, and hoping for many more to come in the same area over the years to come to add density and height.

Cardpooch · May 3rd, 2004, 03:41 AM
