Germany

Today, I received this postcard from Germany.

It shows two of the three crane houses in Cologne, Germany.

• Their shape is modeled after the old harbor cranes.
• The towers are approximately 70 meters high with nearly 16,000 square meters of office area.
• From the 10th floor up, the buildings stretch out over the river Rhine.
• One of the buildings offers 133 luxury apartments for rent.
• The riverside promenade leads along the buildings...and right through them!
