Cologne Tower ((ドイツ語:KölnTurm)) is a 44-storey, ( including antenna) office skyscraper in the Köln-Neustadt-Nord district of Cologne, Germany. Construction of the tower lasted from June 1999 to November 2001, and it is the second tallest building in the city (after the Cathedral), the second-tallest in North Rhine-Westphalia (after Post Tower in Bonn), and the twelfth tallest in Germany. Because of the tower's location near Cologne's MediaPark, it is home to several media sector companies. The observation deck and restaurant, located on the 30th floor, were opened to the public in June 2006. == Architecture == The reinforced concrete building was built in cooperation between the architectural firm Kohl & Kohl and the Parisian architect Jean Nouvel. It contains a suspended centre core and the edge between floors to Pendelstützen. The floor plan of the tower is divided into three areas, with an mast to the upper end. The glass facade of the building was designed with reflected light in mind. Pictures of the Cologne Cathedral and the skyline of Cologne's Old Town were applied to the glass via screen-printing. Depending on light exposure, different combinations of these images appear on the building. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cologne Tower」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
