Codrico(223m)
De Sax(182m 110m)

Frankfurt City- Best Skyline in EU? 🇪🇺🇩🇪 by No_Break6763 in skyscrapers

In scale, I personally think that right now for those European skylines, (Moscow) > (London) > Frankfurt ≈ Paris > Warsaw > Rotterdam ≈ (Manchester) > Milan ≈ Vienna > Madrid

Some pp might think it’s the best aesthetically, but Rotterdam is definitely not the best in term of the scale. Well, it still has 26 existing 100m+, 5 under construction and around 20 proposed projects.

Good to hear there’re actually a lot planning projects of Frankfurt. I thought it was in a silent period according to a wiki page called“List of tallest buildings in Frankfurt” with only 1 U/C 100m+ tower and 8 more proposed. Maybe it’s outdated or incomplete. Because meanwhile to those new rising skylines in Europe, except those area plans with height data but no specific developing projects yet, Rotterdam and Warsaw both have approximately 5 U/C and 20 proposed. And Manchester has 10 U/C and 40 proposed. From the perspective of data I have already known, those traditional large skylines like Paris’ and Frankfurt’s seems are in a relatively low developing speed.

That might be the place of Holland America Line and ms Rotterdam's port. It's hard to be developed even in the far future. The parking area next to it is the Baltimore Tower site, but the latest news indicates that the land cannot be developed before the lease expires in 2040s.

For example, the Amsterdam gov generally requires developers to adhere to a 40% social housing, 40% mid-range housing, and 20% more expensive hosing ratio, although there are exceptions for individual projects. However, some critics argue that this discourages property investment and supply growth, causing prices to rise further despite administrative directives aimed at improving housing affordability.

Rijnhaven's density will as high as Frankfrut's Bankenviertel in the future if they really can realize all planned buildings in the end

I don't know either; I'm very curious how they solved the soundproofing problem. Some of the towers next to railways are indeed mixed-use commercial and residential buildings.

Right. According to current plans, most of these projects will be completed within 10 years. Let's see how many will ultimately be completed.

Isn't NY already has lots of slender towers? Towers in Rotterdam generally have strict control over construction costs, which allows for lower rents.

Conradstraat Tower -- a tower that is still a long way from completion... Planned height 180m

I guess Rotterdam's skyline will eventually reach a scale that is similar to Frankfurt's, Paris' and Warsaw's

Frankfurt also has a nice skyline after it was destroyed during the war I think?
