History
Architecture
The Delugan Meissl Tower is a residential high-rise on the ridge of the Wienerberg in the Austrian capital Vienna. It is located in the so-called Wienerberg City and has an official height of 108.5 meters. The tower is named after the Delugan Meissl architectural firm, which also designed it.[citation needed] The construction of the residential tower took two years (2003–2005) and since then it has been one of the tallest skyscrapers in Vienna. The usable area of the entire high-rise (23,300 m2 (251,000 sq ft)) is used for apartments, making it one of the largest residential complexes in the city.[3]
