The Silo is a 65-meter (213 foot) apartment building converted from a former grain silo located in Nordhavn, Copenhagen, Denmark.[1] The 17-storey structure was completed in May 2017[2] and houses 39 apartments, a restaurant, and lookout platform.[2] The building was designed by the Copenhagen-based architectural firm Cobe.[1]

The building forms part of the wider redevelopment of Copenhagen’s Nordhavnen district. Since 2008, Cobe has been responsible for the urban planning, which is estimated to take 40 to 50 years and expand the district to up to 3.5 million square meters.[3]
