My friend portugal atleast has things like these 100m towers in the bag, and they will likely be built where as in Greece at the moment its just dreams.

You are not wrong, Greece is suffering from skyscraper-phobia and only now has anyone even dared to vision a scraper (let alone 3 'proposals' in 2 months).

I am hoping that we will finally see the end of this era and a new Athens shall be born with the allowence of Skyscrapers!

I hope you do get them Athens needs a drastic urbanistic cleansing, and that might start with this.

I really don't want to go on argueing about that but I can't handle myself.So what was the reason that you didn't open the same thread in SSC then ?
