Russia has become a hub of new skyscrapers lately, and this pattern looks set to continue in the near future with the envisioning of a gigantic skyscraper that will stretch all the way up to 404 meters, allowing it to claim the title of Europe's tallest skyscraper.
Designed by Sergey Skuratov Architects, this gigantic skyscraper's lower section will host retail and entertainment spaces, while the tower will also include apartments and a range of other amenities such as a fitness center.
While skyscrapers are generally designed to stand out, this particular architectural project also aims to respect the visual cues of its urban surroundings, with its west-facing slope matching the direction of neighborhood streets.
Set to be completed in the year 2024, this gigantic skyscraper showcases the latest and greatest in Russian urban architecture.
