The Andromeda Tower (340 feet / 104 meters) was built from 1995-1998. This skyscraper of 29 storeys was designed by Wilhelm Holzbauer. The tower houses different international offices, a bank, a drugstore, a Chinese restaurant and more.



At the lower part of the frame you'll see a black structure. What do you think it's supposed to be? First to guess wins a postcard! :-)

(Austrian bloggers exempted)

Below, this building is leaning...again! Much like yesterday's.

P.S. It's only because of the angle that the building appears to be leaning =)

leaning again

    You've got a leaning building! Cool. I hope it's safe though. And thanks for the well wishes about the citizenship. It's all about the freedom to travel! Pinay through and through.

    Thanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comments.

    G, it looks much higher than one that just houses 29 stories. I love your leaning towers images. You can run a series on this.

    Is that a parking structure?

    Gizelle, the view is surely nice from there.
    The black structure could be perhaps a garage...
    Have a great weekend!

    Yes, the cloud formation on the Sky watch page is actually created by a fire below. Cool, huh?

    Love your shots. I have no clue what the black box is, but I will guess a train station...?

    I can't make out the black structure you're talking about. :-( I'm blown away by that leaning building. It really looks like it's about to fall over. :-)

    I am going to guess that the black structure is a jail. Happy Skywatch! :D

    I guess the building in the bottom photo isn't really toppling over...I hope!

    Twenty-nine stories high is pretty tall. ;-)

    The building really stands out against the sky in the first shot. Nice Sky Watch.

    That's an interesting "leaning tower of Vienna." :)

    Those are both great sky and building shots. I like the way the building leans in the second shot.

    Man - could have fooled me with that whole leaning building thing. Count me out - I'll skip dinner on the top floor and attend a street vendor, thank you! (www.reluctantfarmchik.com)

    I love the leaning photo...great capture!

    For the other, I will guess it is some sort of memorial. It's interesting looking anyway!

    I'm more interested in those stair-like levels — restaurants? And that thing jutting out of the lower photo, what is it?

    G, you might not have been to the waiting building of NAIA at all, if you're the one who keeps coming and going.

    Happy SkyWatching!
