Que du verre ... hum. C'est vraiment une tendance très forte en architecture comptemporaine. Je trouve dommage qu'on ait plus les moyens de soffrir de la belle pierre de construction comme jadis.

Le Central Plaza me semble le projet le plus intéressant.

Merci Grumpy pour les updates. Ça bouge chez vous !

I like how the building on Central Palza answers the curves of the buildings on the opposite side. The opposite side is more monumental though.
