The first residential skyscraper appeared in St. Petersburg

In St. Petersburg, the construction of the 35th floor of the first in the city of a residential skyscraper was completed. The height of the built complex is 100 meters, and so far it is the highest building in the city. According to experts, residential skyscrapers in the northern capital will remain single, but they will begin to "grow up" office and administrative buildings. About this writes "Fontaknka.ru" .

The height of the Prince Alexander Nevsky complex located in the fishing complex for today is the largest in St. Petersburg. The rest of the skyscrapers, reaching the marks of 100 and 105 meters, achieve this result at the expense of spiers, protrusions and other architectural excesses. The 100-meter height was not used in the city fully, mainly developers prefer to work in the range from 40 to 75 meters.

According to Colliers International, four high -rise projects (above 100 m) construction are announced in St. Petersburg - Lakhta Center, Ozerki Style Tower, the Icebridge Office Center on Bolshevik Avenue. Until recently, this list also included a skyscraper at the site of the Zenit cinema, but the project was blocked by the efforts of urban defenders.

Experts believe that high -rise construction in St. Petersburg will develop in the office real estate sector. “The high -altitude office is prestigious,” Realtor Leonid Sandalov argues. “After all, Gazprom is building a skyscraper not to place its managers. And in order to show that it is Gazprom. Therefore, a competition between other companies will unfold - everyone will try to show that they are no worse. There will be a struggle for the second after Gazprom, as it happened in Gazprom, as it happened in the Gazprom. The Krasnogvardeisky district, because it was not for nothing that the idea appeared to build a skyscraper at the Ladoga station.

Recall, a year after Gazprom’s intentions, to build a 400-meter building on the Okhtin Cape, with a project for the construction of nine 150-meter towers, the Adamant company was published with a project of construction. However, in 2011, the developer finally abandoned his plans and now intends to build the Zanevsky Cascade-3 shopping center. This will be, as explained in the company, a “complex of complex shape”, from glass and concrete, up to 20 floors high.

As noted by analysts and architects, and developers themselves, the construction of high -rise buildings in St. Petersburg is carried out unsystematic - the only criteria for choosing the appearance of the dominant are the considerations of the economy and the possibility of getting approval.
