Pandion Vista Hamburg

At Rhine Harbour Cologne on the left bank of the Rhine there are three conspicuous buildings nicknamed "crane houses" by the local population. Offices are located in two of the crane-shaped buildings. The third and most recent crane building contains 133 luxury apartments. The 60-m high building was designed by star architect Hadi Teherani. The distinctive shape of the three buildings, which were designed by Teherani almost 20 years ago, is reminiscent of the cranes which once loaded the river ships in the city harbour of Cologne.

“I don't know any apartment building offering a comparable quality”, the architect praises his design.  The location: unique and non-repicable; furnishing and fitting: of the
finest quality. 1,500 m2 of fibreC panels were needed to clad the facade of the 60m dollar “crane". The luxury building features large glass areas offering breathtaking vistas of the Rhine, cathedral and old town of Cologne. Between the large window areas, ivory-coloured glassfibre concrete panels adorn the crane house.
