That last one is tight. I'd feel scared being under it or at the top while on stuff.

Great projects and I love the Hotel Fiera Milano.

In all seriousness this is the most exciting project in Europe. It's amazing how fast these are being built. And it appears the Italians have talent at designing modern buildings as well. There isn't a single angle in this project that looks anything but beautiful.
