Gasometer City Guglgasse 6 1110 Vienna http://wwwwiener-gasometerat/indexhtmlen These 4 gas holders, known as gasometer were built in 1896 as part of the gasworks at Simmering After they were closed down, the 4 historic towers were renovated, converted into apartments, shopping malls and offices and reopened in 2001 When they were built, the gasometers were the largest in Europe They are listed by the country s heritage ministry as outstanding examples of industrial architecture The renovation goal was to reuse the external façades of the existing buildings, avoiding total demolition of the building and minimizing the generation of demolition waste The gigantic size of this construction project is illustrated by the fact that Vienna's Giant Ferris Wheel would easily fit into each of the four 75-metre high gasometers Floor area/size 2001 42880 m² Main designer, Client Coop Himmelb(l)au Jean Nouvel Manfred Wedhorn Wilhelm Holzbauer City of Vienna Bjorn_Utpott There are very different opening hours for different functions, like the cinema, shopping malls, offices to see it all, visit http://wwwgasometerat/ From Westbahnhof take U-bahn U3 directly to the Gasometer, with direction Simmering (about 20 min) http://wwwmimoaeu/users/iveno/guides/vienna/ 3

Wienerberg City Hertha-Firnberg-Straße 12 1100 Vienna Within the tower ensemble "Wienerberg City", next to the Twin Towers Vienna the apartment towers of COOP HIMMELB(L)AU form the completion to the west and define together with the 5 story building a in height refined ensemble of 350 residential units Both towers with 80 and 60 meters height and the 5 story building are based on a loft concept with flexible open floor plans The three skylobbies in 20 and 26 meter height define characteristic community spaces for each building and are interconnected by a Skyloop These spaces are part of our strategy of increased space quality - a two story lobby with concierge, ecotechnical arrangements such as climatic facades and winter gardens that supplement each unit and form two story high spaces in the maisonette-apartments The residential towers rise up out of a modeled landscape and tie the area of the "Wienerberg City" to the topography of the parks around Floor area/size 2004 27900 m² Coop Himmelb(l)au Nazar http://wwwmimoaeu/users/iveno/guides/vienna/ 7
