Germany's Only Skyscraper City - Frankfurt am Main HD

Frankfurt am Main, also known as ‘Mainhattan’ is the only city in Germany with lots of inner-city skyscrapers. In the past, high-rises were primarily used as bank and office buildings, but now there is a trend towards living in them. This year, Frankfurt am Main saw the completion of the country’s tallest residential tower: the Grand Tower. Several other large-scale projects are currently under construction. In times of rising real estate costs, building skyscrapers seems to be a promising way to go. ---------- Please note: The buildings in the beginning of the video are the tallest residential buildings, there are of course higher buildings (office buildings) in Frankfurt. ---------- #Architecture #Frankfurt --------------------------------------------- Subscribe to DW Euromaxx: https://bit.ly/DWEuromaxx_Sub Would you like to find out more about Euromaxx? ▸Website: dw.com/lifestyle ▸Facebook: facebook.com/dw.euromaxx ▸Instagram: instagram.com/dw_euromaxx DW Euromaxx brings you engaging insights into European cultures and lifestyles.
